Lot # : 21 - Michael Duane "Flint Hills Glory"

"My pastel, Flint Hills Glory, is one of many dramatic early evening sunset storms I've witnessed. The light from the sunset as the evening arrives creates warm lighting on the storm in contrast with the deep shadows on the gently rolling Flint Hills landscape and the dark sky above. I painted this pastel on smooth paper and blended the pastels verses using individual strokes of color." Pastel. Framed, 25H x 31W. Michael Duane has had a compelling interest in the weather since he was seven and witnessed his first tornado. Following storms through the Flint Hills, he appreciates the contrast between the breathtaking beauty and the incredible power of the storms. His paintings of this subject matter are done in bold, pure pastel colors.
