Description
Inspiration is the most important catalyst for any painting and it was not hard to come by when we traveled through the lush Pennsylvania countryside with one idyllic scene after another rolling by. I was visual drawn to this scene because of how organic elements punctuated the landscape. However, I was disappointed that the field had been recently harvested because I wanted it there for the texture and rhythm its presence would contribute to a painting. Artistic License is a wonderful thing, though, because it gave me permission to simply paint the missing rows into the scene just where I wanted them to be.
