About this artwork
This landscape painting of a town nestled in the hills of Morocco is also a color study of earth colors: sand and clay, golden greens, and muted mauve and blue. The painting also explores architectural and geometric shapes surrounded by nature.

« I am a thief. I steal from the world around me. Each walk down the street presents forms and colors that ask to be played with- the shadow of a bike, the corner of an awning, the lines bridging telephone poles...even the tiny sliver of light passing beneath a mailbox. All of these things are game for me. »
Sally K. Smith is an experienced painter from the United States whose works have been exhibited in solo and group shows nationally. Her background in music as a concert pianist influences how she approaches her artistic practice; she sees her work as a passage of time, not unlike listening to a Bach prelude. Working in oil paints and charcoal, Smith creates abstract and imaginary landscapes inspired by the world around her, committing to either bright color palettes or stark minimalism.
