Views From the Pond #13
Bozeman, Montana
2021

There is a paint store in Bozeman that sells (or used to anyway) special paint mixed to match the colors of nature from the surrounding area. The color mixes where developed by someone with an appreciation for these colors as well as the ability to accurately develop the paint color combinations needed to reproduce them. Looking at colors of the various grasses, sagebrush, red twig dogwood and Siberian pea (caragana) plants in this image, I can’t help but imagine an interior designer decorating a home based solely on this color scheme. I think it might look quite nice and definitely cheerful.
