Can you give an example of a painting that started its decline in the middle?

  Honestly, most of them. Especially the ones in a "denser" forest scene. The Alaska mountain ones are better.

  Problem is that Bob cannot do "air". When he paints the distant misty mountain with full contrasts and color, it will do ok on its own. But then he adds the wheelbarrow with same set of colors and the mountain is not distant anymore and painting becomes annoyingly flat.

    Maybe it depends on where you live? From the article, he spent a long time in Alaska. Air pollution may have been a lot less than what people are used to in cities. I had a similar issue with Google maps when they introduced 3D views. (I don't think it supports that anymore, unless they've hidden the feature somehow; I guess they've decided it competed with Google Earth?) Anyways, my impression was "this is pretty cool, but why is it so hazy? Is it like this all the time in the bay area, and so Google engineers think this is normal everywhere?"

      Could also be for the same reason N64 Goldeneye has its fog, so you have to draw less.
