William Van Doren, LOW TO HIGH (Sunset from Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va.) Oil on watercolor block, 13 x 19.

Mountains were barely visible in clouds, so I moved the perspective up from the horizon. Title refers to a certain kind of lacrosse shot or to the vast distance between two decks of clouds.
