The Yellow Piano

A beautiful portrait-length painting of oil on canvas, depicting a closed yellow piano on a brown floor, against a green wall. The piano is pushed back slightly -away from the viewer. It is seen in its entirety, with legs touching the shadowed floor. The brush strokes are thick and vast moving. The painting is impressionistic rather than realistic and leaves an impression of serenity and quiet contemplative joy or sadness - or perhaps a wavering between the two.
