Mountain View

Description

Here winter and wonder embrace, and the result is truly stunning.

Perspective is used to perfection here to create a truly breathtaking scene, but although the foreground is so certain a haziness seems to have absorbed the background. A softness has settled over the distance almost as if the recalling of it is not quite complete. For it seems as though this scene is painted not from life but from memory. Hence the softness to the edges of this world, and the dreamlike stillness that stalks it. It feels like a personal piece of the artist themselves is embedded here, making for a much more powerful punch to the eye. The result is a harsh but beautiful setting, made truly unique by the contrast of certainty and uncertain emptiness. Stunning.
