Monochrome


Experimenting and exploring with black and white on Canson paper. These two are 8x10. The top image shows some farm machine abandoned in the woods, which used to be a field, many, many years ago.

Another artist who links landscape and the body is John Singer Sargent. He did many plein air paintings with people lounging or sleeping on the ground. See the book Sargent Abroad: Figures and Landscapes.
