    I love the way you mix and apply colours Pat.
    June.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    Oh wow! This feels like a visual representation of a sound or peal carrying over the land. There's a tonal quality to such sounds, and if I were doing a movie about nature the superimposed sound would be the cry of an indigenous, majestic bird, or a shamanic flute. I love the colors and your use of the saturation, as well as the horizontal striations as a featured component of this painting.

    One of my flights of fancy for this one is that there is a mirroring of solidity between the earth and sky, as if one was picking up subtleties and characteristics that many would not normally associate with the elements. It seems to feature a comparison between the elements, perhaps pushing thoughts toward a unification or sorts. That's the implication for me on this. Like looking at a cross cut and polished stone that infers a landscape.

    Very rich and inviting. The subject holds strong even with all that interpretive activity that is going on inside my head as I view this. It feels very like a poem to me owing to the rhythmic character I'm getting here.

    Go Pat!

    This is beautiful!

    I had to enlarge the picture just to more fully enjoy it. Lovely colors! Lovely scene! I have spent a lot of time in the Blue Ridge and enjoyed many rides on the Parkway.
