A Western US / Canadian Landscape is portrayed in a largely simplified manner showing light and depth through subtle color and light shifts typical of a sunny but slightly hazy day. Bright sun drenched grasses cover large horizontal planes, divided by a small stream and dark vertical trees. The perspective is deep and emphasized by distant cool mountains behind distant forest growth.
The painting was created as an exercise in Phil Starke’s Winter 2018/19 Bootcamp Oil Painting Class
