"Whenever I came upon this scene, I was captivated by the dance these two trees seemed to be doing together." ~ Richard Schmid, THE LANDSCAPES
Richard had a particular affinity for painting the Connecticut landscape partly because of the lack of industry in bedroom communities such as Gaylordsville, where he painted this landscape en plein air. Featured in several of his books, Richard writes extensively about the process of painting this scene in his first landscape book, Richard Schmid Paints Landscapes.

This is number one of thirty-five hand-made silkscreen prints produced from the silkscreen press, which Richard made in his workshop. Though Richard is widely known for his abilities as an artist, few realize he was also an expert designer and wood craftsman. He designed and built most of the equipment in his studio, including counterweight easels, pochade boxes, bookcases, and, of course, the printing press used to create this work of art.
