I was laying in bed this morning thinking about what I wanted to paint today, when the light started streaming in the room under the curtains. So I came up with this scene that was inspired by that morning light. In the landscape, I wanted to capture the same effect of the low morning light streaking across the canvas. I love cottonwood and evergreen type trees, so I stuck a few of those in to bend and block the low morning light.
About the time I was putting the final touches on the painting and drinking my second cup of coffee, my wife and daughter rolled out of bed.
What a great morning. This piece will be up for auction tomorrow. Thanks for viewing and please sign up for my email list. And check back tomorrow to see what I've been painting....
