This was a scene I saw as I was driving up these mountains to my new home. The scene was a sunset on the mountains and this is my best interpretation of what I saw; with a little Bodhi-S twist to it.
Enjoy the colors. I hope they brighten up your day just a bit. There is so much "darkness" in this world that I try and brighten it up a bit when I can.

I too am an artist, well not recently, I just haven't been inspired for some time now. I like your piece and the smokiness is certainly evident. The orange/green contrasting colours, on the color wheel, are complementary colors so those choice of colors are naturally vibrant and uplifting. Good choice.
The title is appropriate because your brush strokes give me the feeling of flame and where there's fire there's smoke. Also the smokey sky is eye catching because it stands apart.
As for the digital arts, I have dabbled in that too but the learning curve makes it labour intensive and I lose that losing myself part in it, whereas with painting with oil on canvas I lose myself for hours and days with the feel and exploration of the process.
Keep 'em coming and thanks for the positive dose of artistry.
