The Blue of Distance by Holly Ann Friesen | Artwork Archive

Discovery

When painting the horizon, I consider the blue of distance – or how historically blue has been used by Renaissance painters to shape the distant horizon. To me this is magical - you can create whatever world beyond that you want based on memory, experience or imagination. - Holly Ann Friesen
