A moment when the sun peaked through the clouds at sunset to illuminate and turn the mountains a fiery scarlet. This painting captures an austere, yet moving vista.
This is a painting done on canvas mounted on hard board.
Done in oils, with many layers needed to render the subtle variations in shades of red. In the middle distance, we find both warm and cool earth tones. In the foreground different red values contrast with the mountains.
The painter's signature is placed in the foreground. Although not a known name, he has honed his skills over decades, and today many works hang in homes across the country.
Commensurate with the quality of the painting, the frame is also something its owner can also take pride in. See less
