Mountain and meadow
Oil and wax on panel
8"x8"
NFS

Here's round three and probably the last one of this scene. From a distance, the landscape retains the quiet dignity of nature but up close you can see it's been bruised and abused. Brings to mind the immortal lyrics by Jim Morrison and the Doors...

What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered
And ripped her
And bit her
Stuck her with knives
In the side of the dawn
And tied her with fences
And dragged her down

Whoa! FLASHBACK! I was totally obsessed with the Doors when I was in high school (wasn't everyone?)
