Pine River is grounded in direct observation, yet shaped by restraint and editing rather than literal description. The river functions as a structural presence, guiding the composition through quiet shifts of value and colour while holding the surrounding forms in balance. Trees and banks are suggested rather than defined, allowing space, light, and movement to do the primary work.
Paint is applied with deliberation, building a sense of depth and passage without overstatement. The scene feels held and momentary at once — a place encountered slowly, then remembered. As in my abstract work, the emphasis is on containment and transition, where forms emerge, recede, and reassert themselves through measured decisions.
Rather than documenting a specific location, Pine River distills the experience of moving alongside water — its steady pull, muted rhythm, and quiet authority — inviting the viewer to linger in the space between observation and sensation.
Unframed and ready to hang.
