Landscope or Still Life?

What do spheres have to do with this series of 'Landscopes'?
I started off sketching in pencil. They were horizontal lines that I would use to divide the page. That's pretty much all I planned. I then had horizontal sections to lay in some color washes in each.
I continued to add various brush strokes and colors, then the spheres rolled in. I just saw them in the picture, kind of sitting on the shelf. That made me chuckle 'cause it reminded me of a still life. The whole lower half of the page seems dark and moody to me. What does it all mean? It's just something that I created as part of my almost daily creative practice. Click to enlarge
