DescriptionSmillie presents a charming portrayal of Upstate New York with almost Impressionist brushstrokes. The greens and blues of the mountains frame the canvas beautifully. At the center of this work a glimpse of the roof of a home can be seen signaled by a wisp of smoke that rises out of the chimney. The horizon is represented by a curved line that indicates that the modest home is nestled in a valley of the Adirondack Mountains.On View
