gouache 6
Palms seen from directly beneath at dusk, their trunks crossing the frame, with power lines strung between them and a sliver of lit cloud at the upper right.
Upright and read looking straight up. One trunk cuts the picture corner to corner as a hard diagonal; the wires cross it at opposing angles, dividing the sky into irregular panels.
Cool and dusky — periwinkle, slate and violet fill most of the sheet, with the sunset confined to small passages of apricot, coral and lemon low down and at the top corner.
Flat opaque planes, the trunks laid in two or three strokes each with no modelling. The wires and small lamps are drawn last over dry paint in a line of unvarying weight.
Gouache on paper. Matte and fully opaque; the pale sky is painted around the trunks rather than over them. Unpainted margins on all four sides.
Lower right, raypatrick, in cream over the dark pole, letters touching.
