This painting has bits of a defined mountain range, but with a flattened perspective. makes it modern in feel. The use solid blocks of color to represents the mountain range with contrasting colors for detail in the for ground.
There is a balance of bright colors along with natural colors. The composition is enhanced by the expansive feel.
When I was eight, our school went to a field trip to Strawbery Banke. I fell in love with it then, the gardens, the crowded turn of the century houses. It was such a beautiful escape. Now I live close by and I paint such an amazing part of Portsmouth.Strawbery Banke is the oldest neighborhood in New Hampshire to be settled by Europeans, and the earliest neighborhood remaining in the present-day city of Portsmouth. It features more than 37 restored buildings built between the 17th and 19th centuries in the Colonial, Georgian and Federal style architectures. The darkest colored house is the oldest house in the group. I have a group of historical areas that I am painting, or known as historical paintings. Look out for more!
