McLendon, R.A. “Roy” (1932-2024) Florida Highwaymen Painting. Oil on Canvas - signed lower right. Executed in brushwork. Roy McLendon’s Purple Rain unfolds with a dramatic thunderhead in deep violet, its edges aglow with a halo of yellow light. The luminous sky is mirrored in the tropical lake below, where its reflection shimmers among finely detailed sea grass. Slender pines, their needles shaped by crisp brushwork, frame the scene and draw the eye to a solitary figure gently paddling across the water. His calm silhouette against the vibrant backdrop introduces human scale to the spectacle. The composition balances sky and water with a reflective axis that deepens space, while the contrast of warm yellow and cool purple evokes both storm and dusk, a dual mood McLendon handles with subtlety. Through meticulous texture and tonal contrasts. Canvas measures 24x36 framed to overall size of 30x42. Condition: Very Fine
