"Foggy morning across the reservoir" This 24x36 oil on canvas was done from a series of photographs taken on one of several warm winter days. This is from the deep wooded area down one of the many access roads in the Mississenwa State Recreation area. It is near the USGS tributary called Rocky run.
The distinctly yellow color comes from an exaggeration of the yellow light of that particular day. Exaggeration of color becomes necessary for me as a result of the grayness of the typical Midwestern winter.
The violets come from the reflection of light of bare trees. This too is an exaggeration that comes from only the hint of violet as the dominate color among the winter grays.
