This 18"x24", signed, editioned color photograph, contrasts an image of a rural town landscape painting, against the highly textured aqua, teal, turquoise blue painted wall, which reveals a cream white underpaint layer.

The pairing of the two in this photograph compliment each other on a sensory level and bring out thoughts of nostalgia and longing.
