It’s not quite white, has some grayish texture. But we’ll call it white because it’s so dramatic against the blue. This painting started as a landscape and got more and more geometrical and crisp. The white swirl is pure invention. Brilliant. If this were painted much larger it would be brrrrilllllianttttt.
Painting by Harold Bauer, ~20×16. Oil on canvas.

artamaze by Katherine Hilden 
I like to gaze at this painting. The colors and shapes work together to make this so pleasing. Is it from a landscape …doesn’t matter ! It stands by itself ..with no more said.
