From the artist:

The journey was clear, a courier run to Dragon Mountain. The day was beautiful with bursts of sunlight; but emotions and memories are muddied. I'm asked, "Is it clouds or smoke?" and I'm not sure. It changes day to day and I want to brighten it now and make it darker tomorrow.

I've painted still lifes and semi-abstracts for my own pleasure in the physical act of painting and drawing for many years. This is my first painting to share with the public.
