Original, gouache on paper painting is 12" x 16" and unframed. 

Green, blue, grey and sienna work together in mid-values to evoke a sense of low light/strange light. The condensed spectrum treatment applied to a landscape of a neighborhood view; arranges the colors into order according to shadow by moonlight. Long shadows from the architecture and trees imply a rising moon, the bright reflection of the harvest moon color verifies it. We can't see what we come to realize, but we see it implied and verified by two independent sources (the shadows and the reflection).

From this section, a repeating pattern will be created. Visual involvement into the pattern will cause occasional back and forth checking regarding where the pattern may or may not repeat. My intention is to cause a moment of feeling lost and for the viewer to return to looking to the shadows and reflection a second time, not to confirm the source of light but to verify visual progress through the pattern. Did I pass this tree already?
