Finishing Day Whoo Hoo, I signed two pieces today.

In terms of the Explanation vs. Emotion debate. The unfinished left side was difficult for me to leave and let the corner do its job.. But it is done so I did. The cast shadow from the implied canopy on the barn is the bomb for me. That is why I titled the piece Cast Leaves to call attention to my intention.

One Corner, 33 x 66 inches

I am going to use this study for the 54 x 45 piece I just started on the right. I really like the balance of Explanation and Emotion and want to see what happens on a bigger surface

I am so delighted to have captured the chaos and noise of this cascade as opposed to the next most recent “Head of the Pool” I think I will try this again and this next time throw a bit of the orange/red into the cascading water.
