Elements of the landscape that highlight my respect for nature

Golden Light

Golden Light 1, 2023
There’s a reason why Van Gogh emphasized golden yellows, rosy reds and twisted trees. The hills that he painted in Provence glow with those colors and are peppered with the trees. When you walk there you are overwhelmed - no, inebriated - by the aroma of wild rosemary, thyme, and lavender! The gnarled trunks of olives, oaks, and pines rooted in broken limestone are reminders of those that the Gauls, Greeks, Romans and crusading Christians saw as they passed through centuries ago. These ochre-toned images are printed on silver foil-backed vellum to emphasize the backlit, filtered golden light that predominates in the timeless landscape. These delicate prints reflect not only the fragile environment, but also the fragility of memories of place and time. Prints on silver metal-backed vellum are available in image sizes 10 x 15, 14 x 21, and 20 x 30 inches.
