Nature at Sunset \u2013 two stands of trees over dark water<\/h2>\n

Painting on canvas mirrors two stands of orange-gold autumn trees in the dark water below them and leaves the middle empty except for a single bright point on the horizon: decorative painting in which the lower half was not drawn at all but poured.<\/p>\n

Technique and texture<\/h3>\n

The crowns were beaten in with short dense strokes of three colours that mix only once they are on the canvas, which is why they look leafy rather than solid. The reflection below was made by dropping paint and letting it run, with no wave drawn anywhere in it. The sky is thin and smoothed flat, so it separates from the relief beneath it by touch as much as by tone.<\/p>\n

The motif<\/h3>\n

The stands are not matched: the left is lower and tighter, the right taller and more drawn out. The trunks are thin, dark and made with one stroke apiece, and they nearly vanish under the crowns. That bright point on the horizon is the lightest place on the canvas and the only thing the water repeats as a vertical band.<\/p>\n

Setting and placement<\/h3>\n

An autumn palette is worth having in a room with cold light, and it sits easily beside wood and leather. Because the whole lower half was poured rather than drawn, it holds up at close range as well as across a room, which makes it easy to place above furniture.<\/p>\n
