Yellow Mist 5

This composition stages a quiet horizon of sun-washed yellow against a field of saturated violet, as if the day’s radiance is being held back by a dense, nocturnal plane of thought. Hard-edged geometric shards—black, teal, vermilion, and gold—slice through the surface like interruptions in memory, their crisp angles countering the tactile, almost weathered texture beneath. A small aircraft drifting across the upper band becomes a fragile emblem of passage, turning the painting into a meditation on distance: between places, between moods, and between the certainty of structure and the instability of lived experience. The whole image reads as a suspended threshold—part landscape, part internal map—where optimism and unease coexist in the same luminous air.
