Untitled Oil & Cold Wax on Paper by James Edward Scherbarth, Framed

A dark road curves through bright green grass under a heavy teal sky.

Untitled is a framed oil and cold wax on paper by James Edward Scherbarth (1949-2021), signed en verso. Landscapes reduced to a few bands of color have a long place in modern painting, where the horizon itself becomes the subject. Here a deep teal sky fills the upper image, its surface scraped and textured. Below, a band of yellow-green field is cut by fine incised lines and crossed by a dark winding stripe. The work sits under a white mat in a gray-brown frame. The image is 10 inches wide and 7 high, framed at 18 by 15.

Weather on the way, and the grass does not mind.
