Misrach is best known for his landscape scenes. But his landscapes don't just involve nature itself. I'm drawn to the ones where they have been altered by human life. The one below shows a classic western scene but the landscape is altered by the fire near by. The fire was probably caused by humans of course. His compositions are strong as well. His images make me question how I do my landscapes. Do I just want to show a pretty scene or create something more meaningful. Most of his work depicts little life after humans are long gone. He is very consistent with the tone of colors, always a muted semi-monochromatic image.
