Study for Winter Solitude

11x14 oil/linenEvery so often, when your out scouting for locations, you see the completed painting in your mind before you even set up your easel. Such was the case with this one-i couldnt wait to get at it! I hope i captured it well enough to share it with you.

I think i may attempt this one as a larger studio painting. I will post progress as it happens.

Rivers Edge

8x10 oil on linen

February Sunshine

11x14 oil/linenThis piece painted at a location along the Mississippi, that i return to several times a year. It Always seems to offer something different each time. Nature is not redundant, in my opinion-tune in...and paint!
