Horizons are one of the most fun parts of a scene to play around with in an abstract way.  It is such a distinct separation of the surface of a painting which allows for a shift in the composition.  Yet it reinforces the pictorial space and so you get the best of both worlds. With this series the left side of the horizon tends to fade and gets a soft edge and it was always my favorite part to take artistic license with.  With this painting I let it stay a bit harder and got it as straight as possible which gave it a very stable structure and I've enjoyed looking at its grid-like qualities.
