Darkest Nocturne

Size (unframed): 6″ x 9″

Medium: Oil on linen panel

Frame: Closed corner black and silver leaf

Additional info: This was painted en plein air, alla prima (outside, from life, in one session) in Pheasant Creek West Virginia in August 2019.
Note from Gayle: This painting was an experiment for me to see if I could paint a scene without having any light except starlight. It was a new moon in the mountains so was completely dark. I could just see the outline of the hill and the faint outline of the field and the sky beyond. I covered my light and closed my eyes to get them accustomed to the dark, then looked at the scene and tried to remember all the details, then uncovered the light and painted. Once you have painted from only starlight, every other kind of light is just fine!
