Artist Sidney Sinclair’s recent painting,
“Back At Last” utilizes an exploration in a more subtle and muted palette that
is a detour from her previous landscapes which were more intensely chromatic
with darker shadows. This composition depicts a solitary cabin in a quiet
idyllic valley against a back drop of mountains softly obscured in the blue
greyish haze of sfumato.
The lone architectural element in Mrs.
Sinclair’s landscape introduces a human element that lends a more narrative quality
than in her previous landscape paintings. Gentle lavenders and blue violet
wildflowers coax one’s gaze into the quiet frontier of this tranquil scene,
like an invitation to gently surrender one’s thoughts into the river that
calmly meanders towards the horizon in contemplation. Through this
stillness, one truly feels renewed again and “back at last”.
