"Drifting" by SUSIE MORRELL


36" x 48"
oil on gallery wrapped linen canvas

This is a recent commission ~ It's so difficult to capture the nuance of hue transitions in a photograph. You really have to see this one in person. This work looks different in every room of my house depending on how the light hits it. The collector will hang this work on a wall where the sunlight will capture the mass of reflection from the lake. I worked from their photograph taken overlooking the impressive view from their newly renovated home in Doylestown, PA.

Yay Susie!! Great to see your post. This painting is gorgeous. Stay in touch and I hope you will show with us at the Capitol Building in June.

Very nice painting, Susie, with a lovely sense of atmosphere and mood. Beautiful simplification of the large trees- which is hard to do.
