Thank you to the collector that purchased this pastel.
 
In this work, I was attracted to the bands running horizontally in this composition. The colors are much exaggerated and that is what made this scene more interesting. 
 
The vertical trees provide a vertical and chromatic counterpoint, particularly where they break the plane of the bright colors in the back. 
 
This was an enjoyable puzzle to solve!
