"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.

"Lanterns of Gold" ~ 20"h x 16"w Original Oil Painting by Connie Tom

It's exhilarating to me to walk through the woods after it rains or when the morning dew is still wet upon the leaves. As the sun begins to shine, the sunlight reflects from off the leaves and glistens like "Lanterns of Gold". This is the first painting I have done a series of autumn tree paintings called "Lanterns of Gold". ~ Enjoy!

Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous: and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness." ~ Psalm 97:10-12.

I love beautiful sunsets and sunrises because these are usually the times of the day with the most dramatic lighting. The burgundies and reds were complemented with the green of the trees and shrubbery. The lighting was just beautiful! I hope you enjoy this painting as much as I enjoyed painting it. ~ Connie Tom
