This is a scene from the desert in Southern California.

All I have to say is, clouds are difficult to paint. It might be like trying to paint snowflakes.

The reference photo for this painting was taken one evening while I was driving by the airport in winter.

Another Ohio farm sunset. Watching the sunset from the farm was a real treat since we are closed in by trees. We don't see sunrises (and honestly I wouldn't get up early enough) or sunsets unless we are out driving.

No drama here but still fun to paint. At this point I am trying to do two paintings a day to get caught up.

I am a little behind in getting to 30 paintings but hope to catch up now that the weekend is here.

30 Paintings In 30 Days Day One

6"x6"

I decided at the last minute to join a painting challenge for September. At first I wasn't going to do it because my painting time has been limited lately. But I decided to do as many paintings as I can and be happy with the outcome. I chose skyscapes  and landscapes to take myself out of my comfort zone of always painting still lifes. I also want to loosen up and paint a little faster. This is my first painting but haven't had time to post until now.
This 30 paintings in 30 days challenge was created by LESLIE SAETA.

FEATURED ARTIST

I am the featured artist this month atThe Art Vault Gallery in Troy, OH. The show comes down on April 11th. If you are local, please stop by to see my work as well as many other talented artists. I have some work at the gallery on a continuing basis but this is a larger display.

 

ON THE TOWN

I came across this little guy on a morning walk in San Diego. There is a certain freedom in painting dogs instead of humans. I think it's that unconditional love thing and they don't really care if you got a likeness or not.
