Burn Below Storm Mountain
Date

Medium
watercolour on paper
Dimensions
29.5 x 34.5 cm
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.
