Black Hills Evening

Charcoal on paper
16 x 20

When asked why he paints what he paints, artist Neil Welliver responded:
"I have no idea, no verbal answer to that. I am interested in flora and fauna, in the topology and topography. So I do a lot of mindless rambling through the woods. Then I have a sense of place. It feels right, something engages me."

Precisely.
