"Riverview"28x20 mixed media on watercolor paper (light metal grey/blue frame) 23x31x.75) an abstract landscape painting that employs a variety of colors and textures to create an atmospheric effect. The painting's upper section features tall, slender forms that suggest trees, presented against a multi-tonal background that gives the impression of a misty or smoky environment. In the middle of the composition, there's what appears to be a winding path or river, delineated by white lines that contrast sharply with the surrounding hues. Below this central feature, there are areas with rounder, more organic shapes and patterns that represent water bubbles. The lower third of the painting is dominated by darker, blue colors, giving the composition with a sense of a body of water. The overall effect of the painting is one that combines elements of the recognizable world with imaginative interpretation, inviting the viewer to interpret the scene personally while appreciating the interplay of color, form, and texture.
