apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Look! Rothko-esque Landscapes

We've been spending a lot of time way out in the country lately. Early in the morning, the views from our house look like a Mark Rothko painting. The grasses are still covered with dew and the sun has not yet risen high enough to burn off the mist in the air...

 
 

The images (and especially the real-life experience of the view) remind us of the pictured works by Mark Rothko.

Very Wuthering Heights-esque. I love the moodiness these images evoke.

regina, i'm so jealous.

by the way, you know he's one of my favorites (rothko)? i did one of our 2nd year projects on him. these totally have that same sort of quality.

*sigh*
