This painting came about only after I labored over this view on another canvas for a long time. After awhile I took a break and wiped the canvas clean. Picked up a new prepared piece of paper and with the colors already mixed quickly painted what you see here.  The blues and greys in nature that day were unsettling to me because there was not much of any other color in sight.  Each of the 3 Quabbin paintings on this site reflect the blue, blue day.

I felt very small while standing in the dunes here. There was so much vegetation, hills and valleys.  Just trying to make sense of it with paint.
