This summer, in Vermont, at least in Brattleboro, has been particularly strange. We had a late winter followed by a long stretch of sunny days with little precipitation for spring. Then towards the end of July it seemed to rain nearly everyday.
As a result of all this moisture, the landscape is verdant. This panoramic, I believe, conveys much of the range of greens we live with during this time of year. I do not remember a growing season where you could not skip mowing the lawn, one week, before it really gets out of hand.
Needless to say, I included a lot of yellow-greens and cool blues in developing this watercolor. The feeling of moisture with all it's atmospheric qualities seems to dominate this late summer landscape.
