Reeds Lake Wetlands

Oil on canvas - 12" x 9"     This oil is one of several oils completed in 2008 using a limited palette of cobalt blue, cadmium red, cadmium yellow and white. This palette has been extensively used by prominent American artist Russell Chatham.  After seeing an exhibition of his works at Northwestern Michigan College a few years ago, I was challenged to give it a try. The results ranged from complete failure to a few that I was moderately happy with.  This painting is for sale.
