Commission: Field of Gold, Lenham, Kent, UK (2013), 16 x 20 in.

This was a commissioned painting I completed recently.  When I saw the original photo, I just couldn't resist painting it.  This painting contained so much yellow; I used several for variation, straight out of the tube.  I did add some color gradation in the field (the green areas) to create a feeling of distance/depth--I wanted the field to seem huge!  It was also a pleasure to paint a larger canvas again.  I've been painting so many small scale works that I forgot how wonderful it is to fill a large canvas with color!  Click on the image above to see a slightly larger version of this painting.
