On Tuesday at Croquet everyone was commenting on the eerie pink light of the previous evening. This was it from my deck. Eerie it certainly was. Pink it certainly was. There is an artist who painted landscapes in a similar light but I can't recall who it was. Any ideas?

No ideas, but I am absolutely sure that my mother could have told you. She was an artist, a painter, a creator of beauty. Maybe I should post some of her art and share.
ReplyDeleteThis is excuisite, breathtaking and such a gift to the eyes, isn't it?
Thank you for sharing it with us!

Can hardly believe it. It looks so like a painting. Like you, I can recall the look of the artist you're thinking of but not the name. This has to be one of your most impressive pictures of all time. (Can I have a large version sometime, please.)

Turner ?

I'm not thinking of Turner. The artist I'm thinking about is more 'realistic' though slightly stylised in his approach. I have a feeling that he is American or Dutch (or perhaps a Dutch American!).
