Land of many colors

Grandma Moses died in 1961, but if she had a psychedelic phase, maybe it would have resembled Marlene Kidd’s vivid landscape paintings. Kidd’s work is chock-full of jagged hillsides; prominent, unusually hued trees; and little buildings and automobiles inconspicuously placed in the kaleidoscopic ridges. She embellishes the tiers of land with strings of dots, which give this folk art a quiltlike feeling, with the added bonus that no LSD is necessary to appreciate her work.
