As much as we all love blue skies and sunshine, grey days are where the mystery lies. This little painting was done right on the bank of the river in the Cévennes. I was actually on a roll that morning and did several. The massive, dark evergreen in in the foreground on the right sets the stage for the layers of autumn that recede through the painting. It's one of those little works that carries off an expansive view.
