Another Valley View sold. This one is a very abstracted and minimalist approach. It was a favorite of mine and many people were drawn to it. The "softer" color with pops of red-orange and a very strong composition are I feel what makes this painting work so well. Unlike the earlier Valley Views this painting did not rely on heavy texture which gives this painting a more sophisticated feel.

I need to finish up (about 10 works on paper and several canvases) and begin some new explorations of the concepts within my understanding of what I call Valley Views...since most of the earlier works have found homes!
