Florida Palms
Here's another painting 24" x 30" Florida Palms
that I'm putting some last touches on.
The Cuban Palm in the center of the composition needs work, as well as the sky and the foreground.
Some harmonizing sky motif seems to be called for here.

Florida Sunset
Here's a painting that I'm just finishing up.
Really an experiment in close value modeling, I'm finding that I am using the red-green simultaneous contrast as my color mixing harmonic,as the vortex of orange light diminishes , the local color and shadow creep back into the mass tone.I remember years ago there was a George Inness exhibition at the Metropolitan museum, and there was a dusk-afterglow landscape that I was totally captivated by. I was blown away by the extreme close value modeling in dark silhouettes in back light, and how chroma was squashed down so that it was irrelevant... all that mattered were extremely small variations in color temperature which made forms recede into the mist.Making these forms recede while in front of a vortex of warm light , as in a sunset, requires using the tools of contrast as well as color temperature.
