Evening

                                                          oil on canvas 24x18 1985

In the mid 80`s I did a big body of abstract work using horizontal divisions within the painting. Not real original but sometimes I got something worthy. This was a favorite and seemed to have the feel of a summer dusk.

One of my favorite composition styles.

This is more beautiful than any Rothko. It reminds me of a stormy evening sunset at the beach when the heavy sky parts from the ocean and a band of pure light shines through.

Hi Randall,
This is my second visit to look at this painting. I like it very much and bet the superlatives would really be flowing if I saw it in-person. I would agree with Ms Reimer's comments, too.
Mr. Diebenkorn's influence can be seen, in my humble opinion, in your handling of the large bands of color. It adds a tremendous amount of interest for me.
Thanks for sharing it, Randall. It's clear your public likes it, too. :)
Have a wonderful day.
Sincerely,
Gary.
