The original painting is for sale. The Amherst Bike path has miles of paved trails for walking and riding bikes. I wanted to capture the look of a hot and humid summer day. I accomplished this effect by making the trees in the distance lighter and more blue than the ones in the foreground which is commonly referred to as “atmospheric perspective.”
