Storm Clouds, Liguria2019-2020 Storm Skies over Liguria, For Mr. Antony Burgmans, Chairman of the Mauritzhuis Museum, The Hague, The Netherlands. Where the large area of sky invited a new approach to clouds and sky, and the sea is rendered in horizontal long and shorter stripes( to represent waves ) to provide a calm and strong supporting and contrasting area to the tumultuous skies. And yet again a new treatment of the trees, in fresh greens and cobalt blue shadows. And the coloured houses are subtly striped to infuse life and energy into the flat surfaces.
