Southwestern Landscape (Acrylic on Canvas)


Another one of these (see: a few days ago): very odd. If I were to learn that this came from a coloring book specifically made for aspiring artists/painters, I wouldn't be surprised. It just has that look. Does anyone remember the old Planet of the Apes coloring books that were available in the early-to-mid-70s? The coloring pages were taken from actual movie scenes/shots, only with much less detail so that they would be easy for spazzy, dorky, weird little kids like myself in the mid-1970s to color. THAT is what this reminds me of: a painting done over the tracing of a photograph. I'm not saying that's what this is, I'm just opining.

I don't dislike this painting per se: I'm simply puzzled by it...
