Ledge

LedgeShannon Westphal is a Maine based contemporary landscape painter who investigates emotion, line, and presence through place. About this collection: Permanent Impermanence The idea of impermanence allows us to appreciate when times are good and accept the hard times that will eventually pass. For me, nature has always been a constant. Nature holds the ability to jolt me out of my worry about the past or future and bring me into present mindfulness.

which swing from bleak grey to intensely on fire
