I found the above piece so much fun that I went on to create more. I began with one 5" x 4" panel and continued a panoramic scene with three more rectangles until I got to see the view I was looking for.

When I work, there seem to be infinite possibilities of color combinations for the hills and the sky. The mountains on earth are living structures and constantly change. They exist in unique atmospheres which change color with the rising and the setting sun, which then changes the way we see the colors and the shapes of mountains.
Each time we look at a landscape, it is with slightly different eyes. We also focus on different aspects of what is in front of us. Because of the different possibilities of seeing and mentally cropping landscapes, these scenes are sometimes expressed in a single panel while other times extend into a triptych, etc,

This triptych is set at sunrise and focuses on sandy, rock formations in the desert.

Besides taking inspiration directly from what I've experienced in nature, I like to over exaggerate certain colors like in the scene with the bright green hills below. Or all together make things up, like the other bright lime colored hills with an tangerine sky.
Each individual panel is 5" x 4", made with stained glass and was created in 2009. This is an extremely playful series that will keep evolving over the coming months.
every piece is beautiful, loved your drawings and ornaments a lot!!! really happy i met you! good luck.
