Description oil on hardboard ca. 60 cm x 35 cm.

Aims to depict a mythical landscape in a way that combines abstraction and recognizable form. It used to have more width and a hand in it which looked like a balloon, and got a removal verdict.

Thanks. 'tis flattering.

I guess I could sell it to you with a friendly price, but I'll put it in my art show first - and someone might offer a non-friendly price...

I don't blame you
I need to sail some stuff sometime
but it's hard in my town

but I'm working on getting some space at a local place to hang my better stuff

looks better without the hand in i think. very soothing somehow, even though the colors would normally be kind of agitated (reds/yellows) they are very softly blended and greyed.
