Time is precious and the time we give each other is priceless.

COUNTING FENCE POSTS

6x9, oil, $90.00

This fence post lined trail is in Peter's Canyon, not too far from home.  A good place to get out and hike and be home just a hour or two later.  There are lots of wonderful views to paint and photograph.  It never fails to surprise me how different things can look throughout the year.  This is my favorite tree.  I have painted this tree many times and love how it changes.

TREE LOVER

6x9, oil, $90.00

Revisiting old paintings is lots of fun.  I drove by this tree today in Peters Canyon and was reminded just how much I loved painting it in all seasons.  I went home and pulled up some photos and went to work.  I choose a photo from mid summer (thinking warm) from a few years ago.  I am in the process of figuring out which landscape 6x9 will be good to paint in a larger format of 24x36, I am not fussing as much and just getting it down.

I am also feeling a bit more confident with the process of developing ideas.  Gee wiz I love painting.

SUNDAY DRIVE

6X9, oil, $90.00

Couple of weeks ago my hubby and I went out to take photos in O'Neil Park for a potencial series of studies for a larger painting.  The road in was just beautiful and lined with old oak trees.  I was shooting with a slow shutter speed trying to catch the light.  They all were pretty blurry, but showed the light,  which was all that I wanted.  Who needs detail...ha.

BREATH OF FRESH AIR

6x9, oil on gesso panel, $90.00

Returned to an old favorite spot to work on landscape.  There are many aspects of landscape that I love.  Mainly getting out and breathing in.  

FALL

6x9, oil, $90.00

Recently I was in Portland for a workshop and had the wonderful opportunity to experience Fall in the Pacific Northwest.  Unbelievable color everywhere.  It was a delightful gift to see.  I could not take enough photos of the neighborhood leaves falling on the wet streets after the rain.  I love seeing the atmospheric conditions in other places.  The light is so different.  It was a great trip.
