2021 creek oil 1 at 2pm, following the replacement of the trees on the right. see the comaprative images BELOW
2 PM:when i entered my studio this morning, i knew i had to get rid of thos two trees on the right. i had thought they were serving as a support of all that’s going on in this active surface. but they were just stealing the show. so i painted over them and instead added what comes off as a continuation of the activity taking place to the left. now the dramatic focus is the area of white water and blue/white/green patterning. the addition of that small patch of white on the far right echoes the larger area of white to the left, as do the wiggly blue marks around and above it.
