Studio Gallery : Bill Cone - Light, Water, & Granite - Pastel Paintings & Studies from the Sierra.
Review by R.W. Miller & images c/o Studio Gallery: These paintings are about appreciating those moments in the wild. The large silhouetted rocks, and those jutting out of the grass add a sense of history. A sense of timelessness pervades, and a connection with the primeval. You have to look twice to see that these are clearly paintings, rather that photographs. They are gorgeous with Sierra fields, valleys, ponds, streams, and stones. The wild places give you reason to pause and reflect, and to bask in the mountain sunlight.
