Yesterday I was dropping off some Artwork on the other side of the State so I took the opportunity to have lunch with a friend. The Gallery is located within a very picturesque village. JUST LOVELY.
The restaurant was located two miles away. It is a two mile stretch of road that may at one time have been a main thruway. It is now very lost and tired looking. The merchants along this strip have probably been there for decades…sinking into obscurity like Grandma’s draperies.
Now I am a person that LOVES a winter landscape …one devoid of foliage. The sculptural beauty of trees is like looking at the bone structure of a person.
It was the bleakness of this stretch of road that pushed me to thinking:
Do I add more color to my work in the Winter to balance the lack of it while
working monochromatic in Summer to neutralize the lust abundance of color….????

The thing we ponder on our way to lunch!
