"Blue Sky in Leaves", Surrealist Landscape Naive Primitive Acrylic Painting
By Henriette Gorbitz
Located in Clermont-Ferrand, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
This artwork depicts a small pond in a summer or spring mountain landscape in the background. The artist applied different tints in rectangular areas starting from the center. It may suggest different seasons, but it's not, since the vegetation doesn't change. The sunset sky is unaffected by these differences of tint. Two of these areas are filled with mosaic patterns, one light blue and the other yellow. The surrounding area is made as a carpet of leaves with strong veins. On top of these leaves are leaf-shaped patches of sky. Four large leaves also cover the landscape. This artwork is not framed. Henriette Gorbitz...
