Big Sky2

18" x 24" daily acrylic painting
surface - gallery wrapped canvas
SOLD

For the past few years or so I've been reluctant to make a commitment to painting large. What was I thinking? These last two pieces were very satisfying to paint, mostly because I didn't use any references. I'm beginning to realize that I love painting landscapes. There's a simplicity in them, and a sense of serenity.

footprints in the snow

24" by `18" daily acrylic painting
unframed stretched canvas

This was so much fun to paint. No references . . just my imagination. My daughter inspired the beginning of this painting and it just kept evolving until the last stroke of paint. As much as I hate the cold I love the look of fresh snow on the ground.
