Edge of Town violet not just soil

not just soil

You cannot get any more American than that

and shortening days all rush back to me

Melting Metropolis is an abstract painting created with colored rice paper and acrylic paper

I can create a range of tones and textures within my prints

Edge of Town violet not just soilMixed media (acrylic, paper, and graphite) 8" x 8" on cradled birch panel When I was young, I loved riding my bike through the suburban track housing where I lived, over to the edge of town where the apricot orchards and meadows had yet to be bulldozed. This painting depicts that carefree time of exploring my neighborhood. Today, those open spaces are gone as the entire area is fully developed and home to Google's headquarters.
