New abstract painting: “The Blue Memory of Distance”

New painting: “The Blue Memory of Distance”, oil on canvas, 24x30, 2025. This piece began as a cityscape but evolved into an abstract composition that still hints at architectural forms. I experimented with the color palette and used different techniques to create distinct textures throughout the painting. The painting's title references Rebecca Solnit's essay "The Blue of Distance" from her book, A Field Guide to Getting Lost (great book). It has multiple relatable meanings which is perfect for an abstract painting that allows for more personal and nuanced interpretations.
