Happy Mountain

Happy Mountain

I finally finished this painting. I have been working on it for three weeks. It started when I saw a photograph of Freudenberg, Germany. All of these half-timber houses that were all black and white with the same basic pattern of timbers and windows and roof lines. Don’t get me wrong; the residents must be happy and content. I thought it would be nice to Americanize it to propose it for a hillside development, say, in central PA,  as opposed to all of these boring boxes that waste arable farmland. This is the result.

“Freudenberg” means “joyful or happy mountain”.
