William BukowskiLarge Russian Sage
in progress oil on linen
2008
In this painting I am trying to capture a fleeting moment at Sibley Park. The light of 8:30 in the morning as it moves over a flower hedge with a large Russian Sage in the foreground. This painting is 6' tall and about 3' wide. This same effect has occupied my last 3 out of 5 paintings. It is extremely complex but the challenge is the excitement. I suppose the danger is the repetition of so many greens. The foreground needs alot of work but it is coming along.
