Color in the Sky


Color, color, color, color, COLOR! This piece is quick, it's spontaneous, and it's not something you'd actually see in the sky. But it's not senseless. And the color in the sky and in the terrain in the foreground sort of halos the mountains in the background, making them the focus of the painting, despite the monotone blue and stylistic differences. It's like two different paintings put into one. It's almost heavenly. 
I love the clever framing that the artist experimented with in this painting. He/she essentially framed a painting within a painting.
