- Description
- 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.
