Green Mountain
This is a piece I did a few months ago when winter was just getting under way. Now I can see plenty of green from my studio window but the temperature is back to winter.
I’m not at all sure why hills or mountains seem to appear now and then in my work. This piece is one of a series of four images featuring mountains, birds and sky that I made at the same time. One of the interesting things about making art is the mystery of finding out what the image wants to be. Even now I’m not sure what the piece is about except that I wanted to convey a sense of drama and movement that would activate both the “land” and the birds.
