Abstract Plains Painting - The Great Plains

The Great Plains
18x36 inches, acrylic on canvas

This abstract great plains painting has some of the colours I absolutely love the most, rusty reds and oranges with rich, dark untertones.  Painting is such a joy to me and mostly because I get to play with colour.  Then there is the mystery of composition which sometimes just develops along the way.

The colour combination in this one shows a field deep into autumn, on an overcast day, with only a weak sun coming through the wall of cloud, but yet, there is something more.  Something looms on the horizon, just left of centre.  What is it?  This is the mystery of composition.
