Loess Hills Sunrise


16x20, acrylic on panel, © 2007 
Private Collection

That magical morning returning from the Loess Hills became the source for various paintings. 

Recognition: This one was painted to be displayed at the 2007 Omaha Artists Desoto Bend Nature/Wildlife Show where it received an Honorable Mention.

Judge's Critique

Design & Composition: !

Technique & Use of Media: Excellent

Use of Color or Value: Subtle

Judges comments: Excellent paint handling—sensitive, subtle. Very physically deep composition. I enjoy the way that the strokes in the sky refer to those in the trees. “Half and Half” composition—very effective—pulls one through the composition.
