Between Two Worlds
(work in progress)
28" x 40"

This painting was started a few weeks ago during the 50/50 birds project. I had little time to work on it then, but now it will be my primary focus for the next two weeks before vacation. This is the underpainting stage, where I lay down color temperature, composition, and value with the first layer of paint. My goal with this one is to create a painting that expresses the vulnerability of California's wilderness to fire and maybe say a little something about our state's political climate at the same time. I will post regular updates as this piece develops.
