Title

Woods and Stream

Description

Judging from the brushstrokes, we appear to be located at a river's bend, our view of the sky obstructed by trees but inferable by a play of light in the water. With the exception of two sharply defined tree trunks, most of Gordon's painting emphasizes autumnal color over form; a few dabs at lower right become a principle drama.
