Quarry Reflections

Paul Shively

Cleveland Museum of Art

Watercolor painting by Paul Shively titled "Quarry Reflections". The painting depicts a rocky quarry with a small body of water. The quarry has steep, light-brown and tan rocky walls. Large, jagged rocks protrude from the walls and are scattered around the quarry floor. Some of the rocks have darker brown and reddish hues. The quarry floor contains a small pool of water that reflects the colors of the rocks. Green foliage and vegetation grow around the quarry, on top of the walls, and in the foreground. A small stone wall or pathway leads down into the quarry. The painting style is impressionistic, with loose brushstrokes and vivid colors. The overall atmosphere of the painting is serene and contemplative.
