Deals Kirkland #5

"Kirkland" was a body of work I made in 2018, it was a view outside my apartment in Kirkland, Washington deals. Now I live in Seattle and miss my beautiful view. I focused a lot on the big tree on the horizon, I enjoyed seeing the tree in different weather. I love rainy scenes because the values are mid-tone and within mid-tones you can have the richest, most luminous color. I am fascinated by woods as a subject matter, as Robert Frost said, they're 'lovely, dark and deep.' Woods represent the mystery in life and how some things are unknowable.
