Changing light

Everything is Falling Apart

The light changes gradually as Fall approaches. Officially it is still summer but the green is starting to fade and yellow and the skies take on a hazy look too. I painted this at the farm of an old friend of mine who is also a fine artist in her own right but focuses more on boarding and training horses now. The sky was very interesting this day. Not the usually hazy overcast but some more dramatic clouds—forerunners of the ‘tropical depression’ headed our way. I usually clean up the edges on my pictures but recently my paintings have been looking a little overworked. The picture looked fine so why not just stop where I am?
