Original artwork description
“Short Circuit" Contemporary Impressionist Landscape With Dry Summer California Hills in Tan, Green, Blue by Mill Valley Artist Mary Anne McKernie_x000D_
_x000D_
An inviting lake evokes relief from the heat at the foot of dry summer California hills._x000D_

Original (New) - Acrylic on canvas_x000D_

My art is inspired by both natural and built environments, primarily of the Bay Area where I have resided for 45 years, but also by trips taken to countries in Europe and the Caribbean. My studio is in Mill Valley, California._x000D_
_x000D_
My use of color can be traced to years of interior design and color consulting. Observing that many wall paints looked dull and lifeless regardless of hue, I learned that those that seemed rich and complex—as if they glowed from within—were mixed using the full spectrum and without black. To replicate these pleasing and harmonious colors, I use a limited palette comprised of only the three primaries, two secondaries and white, and I mix my own chromatic blacks._x000D_

The scenes in my artwork are often desolate, devoid of people, distilled to the essential elements needed to convey a peacefulness that may exist for only a fleeting moment. And in that starkness is a certain drama.
