Blue Bluster

With no clouds or haze the autumn sky is purer and appears more vast, in graduated shades of buff, aqua and blue. The linear structure of the land delivers a serenity and calm in indigo, bronze, copper, gold and aqua. The trunk and primary branches of the tree are painted in silver with secondary branches in blue, gold and copper. Whilst the tree stands firm, and the branches sway and yield to the force of the gale, the leaves cannot sustain the battering and are carried away in the airstream.
