Abstract Prairie Landscape Painting: Cross Wind


Cross Wind
12x24 inches, acrylic on canvas

This abstract landscape painting was inspired by prairie fields in spring.  Pulled again to use strong yellows and yellow greens, I wanted to work in an abstract texture that would be reminiscent of grass weighted down by a long winter's snow.  This is a field I remember walking in when I was a kid, smell of wet earth, mud on my boots, buzz of insects, trees on the horizon that I never seemed to reach.

Again I've photographed this painting to show the organicness of the raw edges in keeping with the feeling of the entire piece.

This painting has sold.  To see available paintings,
