With that in mind, I painted the landscape with more abstraction -- there's more to go, I'm sure -- and kept the looming square effect as a strong element of the painting.

A little "Rothko" in the landscape
My new mantra, don't be boring, was on my mind today out at the farm. I was facing the silhouette of the farmhouse, a large looming dark square, when it occurred to me that it looked like a Rothko painting, just with a large tree in front of it.
With that in mind, I painted the landscape with more abstraction -- there's more to go, I'm sure -- and kept the looming square effect as a strong element of the painting.
I have more work to do on this and I'm enjoying the push-pull of abstraction vs. the landscape before me.
