Claire Van Vliet

Artist, American, born 1933

The image depicts a landscape viewed at ground level. The horizon is one-third from the bottom, dividing the vibrant yellow field from the sky. The sky occupies two-thirds of the image with textured clouds in various shades of grey and blue. The color scheme transitions from earthy browns and vibrant yellows in the field to muted blues and greys in the sky. The artist uses stippled effects for the sky and broad strokes for the field.
