"Sedona Times" #285

Here is another Sedona painting, I like how the juniper leads my eye to the rockstar of the painting, those beautiful rocks.
I am heading up to the canyon today.  I won't have time to paint, plein air, because we are playing tour guild for some friends, but my camera and sketch book will be very active.
This painting will be up for auction at my online gallery, dailypaintworks.com

"Marshland Sunrise" #284

When I was in Chico, Ca last Thanksgiving I was intrigued by all the rice fields near Sacramento. I decided to create a painting that depicted water and rice reeds with some distant hills.  I used the orange and purple hues to give the painting a sun rise look.  It turned out very dramatic.  This painting will be up for auction at my online gallery, dailypaintworks.com

"The North Face" #282

I painted this one a week or so ago.  I have been planning our epic summer RV trip and one of our first stops is Yosemite NP.  So to get a jumpstart on my summer painting, I have decided to start painting some of the places we will be visiting.  Painting from photos isn't the best but it is pretty comfortable painting in my studio.  One can only image how cold and windy it might be trying to paint North Face from life.  I guess I'll find out this summer.  This painting will be up for auction at my online gallery, Dailypaintworks.com.
