Being out in the woods or hiking in the mountains can be an intimidating experience.  It is when we are in the enormity of the wilderness that we realize how very small and insignificant we are.   These paintings by Spanish artist Paco Pomet seem to have that same feeling of being in the midst of an overwhelming landscape.

 

Mountains take over offices and pink clouds engulf a riverscape as Pomet uses carefully placed color to emphasize the distinction between man and panorama.  Each painting has an incredible sense of scope and depth, so that the feeling of the immensity of the earth is readily apparent.
