"Sundown on the Rio Grande" Autumn landscapes Hudson River School by Connie Tom

"Sundown on the Rio Grande" Autumn landscapes Hudson River School by Connie Tom

"SUNDOWN ON THE RIO GRANDE" is a work of color and light, mood and atmosphere. This work pictures a view of the Rio Grande River at sundown. The colors are very romantic...reminding us of those skies where the cowboy rides off into the sunset. This clouds and sky are vibrant with colors and compliments the western flair. The sun and sky colors are softly reflected on the water.


COLORS

The music of the eyes

In his journals, Delacroix said that colors are "the music of the eyes," that they "combine like sounds" that create harmonies rivaling those produced by the great composers with great orchestras. In fact, he says: "Certain color harmonies produce sensations that even music cannot achieve." This artist tries hard to produce color harmonies that create positive and uplifting sensations.

"The Cowboy" ~ 30"x20" A Painting a Day Luminous Cowboy and Indian Western Landscapes by Connie Tom

"The Cowboy" ~ 20"h x 30"w Original Oil Painting by Connie Tom Western

I still love westerns on television and in the movies. Even the old ones. Our family watched them ever since we were kids. So the image of a cowboy stirs up the emotions of virtues of a hero of a sort. They were the ones saving the day, righting the wrongs, saving damsels in distress, living hard, but dedicated to their work. This cowboy was probably all cleaned up after a dusty trail ride, just sitting by the fire and relaxing and thinking. What is he thinking about? Maybe the hard days work, his love back home, maybe just about life. You decide.... Enjoy!
