ORIGINAL PAINTING OLD WALNUTS ON GUM SPRINGS

 

Hey Friends,  A horizontal landscape painted a few months ago en plein aire.  I tweaked it last week and finally decided it was finished.  This is the little sprout of water that is basically drainage from all the mountains around us.  It usually dries up in the summer unless it's a very wet season.

Soon it will be time to go there again - YAY!!

My Muse

 

Hey Friends,  It seems every Monday I miss posting my blog.  Even when I preload this blog, days before.  I miss it. OK better late than never.

I'm sure most of you know my muse is nature.  Just going outside makes me want to paint.

The one above was painted at Douthat State Park this summer.  Good Memories.  Click HERE for Ebay.

 

And this Walnut tree was painted at Brookside Park.  Yes, the one beside the golf course.  When I take my GranBabes here to play in the water, they are so busy and happy, I get to paint !!

Can't think of anything better than watching my Loves play and painting at the same time.

PleinAir Painting in Bedford, Va.

Click for Ebay

 

Hey Friends,  It's been too long since last post but this has been a crazy summer, year.  Much like the last few.  The painting above was done yesterday while visiting the Wharton Garden beside the #Bower Center in Bedford, Va.  My painting Group, the #Double Line Painters, was delivering the work done for the # "Barns of Bedford " project.

 

Here is the Ole Gal painting on the first one.  I think I need to lighten the bricks before I post here.  I took several photos as the piece progressed and will let you see them after I finish.

 

And here is the little #sky painting, started next.  I was a bit tired & lazy so I sat for this one.  Seemed to make it go faster or it could be I've painted tree lines so often, I've got the hang of it now.  This garden had some gorgeous trees.  A couple I've never seen before.  One really large tree w/large pale pods, Judy called a "Kentucky __something__Tree.

I will post the first painting tomorrow I hope.  And details about the exhibit "Barns of Bedford".

Day 13 of 30 Days "Beach Butts"

Hey Friends,  Did not think it would happen so quick.  Running out of time, running out of paintings.  But that's what has happened.  This past week was busy with family stuff and not feeling so swell, as in NO SUN depression.  So I'm cheating a bit.  This was painted some time ago and the photos were taken in the Tampa, Fl. area. 
I wanted every painting to be from the trip to Myrtle Beach.  I have about 5 in various stages but none dry enough to scan.  They should be dry enough by tomorrow, so then I'll just carry on.
