"Tucked Away" 7x5 Oil

I was on one of my outings minding my own business when I turned a corner and there was this view of the house tucked away on the side of the hill. After photographing it, I moved on then returned the next day and painted it. I imagined the folks inside comfortable and warm sitting by the fire. It was a nice thought as I experienced the temperature drop about 12 degrees while I worked. I enjoy plein air painting just for this reason. I now have a great memory, one of many from this trip.

"The View From The Top" 8x10 Oil

I have been enjoying my visit to North Carolina for the simple reason that it has everything I love to paint. This morning I went out to paint and it took less than five minutes to find a spot and set up. This must be a personal record. The problem is making a decision on which seen to paint with so much to choose from. A difficult decision but that is why I bring a camera. Although there are times when the images I take pale in comparison to the real thing, they still work well to help bring to life on canvas the experience I felt when I was there.

"North Carolina Color" 5x7 Oil

I have been spending some time with relatives in North Carolina to experience some of the Fall season here in the east. Thanks to my wife, this trip is possible. The scenery has been beautiful and I look forward to seeing more. This pond is located near the town of Wesley Chapel. Today the weather is rainy so it is a good day to hang out inside, listen to some William Ackerman and post a painting.
