- Description
- Colours are predominately black, green, white, grey, purple and blue. New-growth evergreens and charred black remnants of trees dominate the painting. Middle third of the painting through the charred trees is Storm Mountain range with mist and cloud obscuring tops of peaks; there is evidence of snow on the mountain range and through the trees on the lower slopes. In the top-third, a stormy sky prevails; several dark clouds with vestiges of blue sky showing. The foreground of new-growth trees are painted in different shades of green, mostly light green, darker green in the background and on the slopes. Dominating the viewer’s left is a tree burned black reaching from top to bottom, charred black trees in the middle half reaching up to the mist, and charred black trees on the right reaching from the new-growth forest floor to the top of painting. Viewer’s eye is drawn into the mountain valley foreground to the wooded uphill of seemingly unburned slopes.

- Dominant colours are blue, green, yellow, brown, mauve, purple and grey. The painting is dominated by the lake shore foreground: on viewer’s right the tip of a grey, gnarled dead tree with branches; the tree appears to have gouache painted on to give it texture; a yellow and orange-coloured rock mid-centre to the right; on viewer’s left wildflowers, the dead tree trunk and the bush above. Grey and brown pebbles and sand and the top of the tree in the water make up the foreground on the extreme right. The dead tree appears to be resting on the yellow and orange-coloured rock. There are yellow flowers with brown centres (Black Eyed Susans) and green leaves below the tree trunk, viewer’s left, and a bush with big brown and green leaves above that. The blue-green calm lake lies beyond the tree trunk and on the opposite shore are blue, grey and purple hills and a snow-peaked mountain; to the viewer’s extreme right is a green and purple hill. The sky above is barely discernable and is a mixture of blue and mauve.
