Crooked Creek 

"Crooked Creek" is a landscape painting by American artist Dan Graziano (b. 1953). This oil on canvas depicts a winding creek surrounded by lush green foliage. The artist's loose brushstrokes and impressionistic style give the work a sense of spontaneity and immediacy. Graziano's work often captures the beauty of nature in a way that is both realistic and evocative. This work is likely an en plein air painting, executed outdoors, allowing for the artist to capture the ephemeral and subtle qualities of light and color in nature.
