“Late Autumn Hike” watercolor on paper, 18” H x 24” W, 2021
This water color depicts a lone hiker in the barren woods of late fall. I painted him from a photo I took while walking in the Watchung Reservation. He was in the gully below me near the stream and very intent on his hike and deep in his own thoughts.
His bright red hoodie against the monochrome landscape and the vertical lines of the trees was an exciting composition to me. The mood this scene creates is pensive and somber.
