Tile 23




















For these latest tiles (17 - 23), I am playing with color, colors chosen for themselves rather than for their representation of the landscape itself. Color on canvas can never capture the intensity of what we see outdoors. To try to recreate this vision, the colors have to lie, have to push themselves onto your eyes, perhaps scream a little... Here, orange, yellow and a bit of blue. Posted by Picasa
