Oil

This painting is inspired by the sunsets of Idaho. The trees turn dark and illuminated by some sort of rich velvety blue. The pink of the clouds, salmon colored and thick with texture. The blue behind in the sky is bright and almost neon. I used oil to express the depths of color and kept the palette limited. There are a few moments right after the sun slips behind the horizon that everything magically changes. This is that.
