Pink Moon Blue Water (Beth Adams)

Since moving full time to the Desert I have been influenced by the full moons here in the Valley: their clarity and import. I enjoy studying them each month and then painting my interpretations using colour and energy. In this most recent work I imagine the moon as pink with blue waters below. The light from the moon informs the painting as well as the impasto gestures that float in the waves, imagining the sea and tides of coastal California.
