Corvallis Airport Water Tower (2025) by Brandon Waite is a plein-air oil painting that distills an iconic rural landmark into a study of color, shape, and atmosphere. The tall, rust-streaked water tower rises above a soft winter landscape, its warm oranges and reds contrasting against a cool, overcast sky. Expressive, textured brushstrokes capture both the structure’s industrial presence and the quiet mood of the surrounding fields and bare trees. Measuring 14″ × 11″ on canvas-wrapped panel, this piece blends realism with painterly abstraction—perfect for collectors drawn to distinctive scenes of Americana.
