Grand Vistas before coming home

 

On the Edge with Lines 8x10 oil unframed $75

The final stop along the way home from San Diego was the Grand Canyon National Park.

The painting above was done in my studio upon returning home. Going for a little different look than my usual. Incorporating some drawing and painting. 

I tried plein air painting on site but when I got all set up I found I forgot my canvases. I wasn't going to give up and pack it up so I found my sketchbook paper to paint on. The paper really soaked up the paint and it was very different and somewhat difficult. But at least I got some color notes while enjoying the view and fresh air.

Returning just in time for Spring

 I just returned to my studio after a month of taking in the sights around San Diego, Lake Mead and the Grand Canyon. Lots to be inspired to paint. 

Happy to be home.Can't believe the nice weather already. I guess spring is just around the corner.

I did take my pochade box with and had a chance to paint onsite at a few places.

Here's some of the places I captured in San Diego.

Balboa Park,  a wonderful venue of buildings and gardens.

Spanish Village-Balboa Park 8x10 oil unframed $75

 

Mission Bay, where we stayed at an RV park.

So many more places that I just didn't have time to paint. San Diego Safari Zoo, La Jolla Cove, Torrey Pines, Sunset Cliffs just to name a few more.

Lots of paintings coming in the future.

Frozen Bottoms

 

Frozen Bottoms 11x14 oil unframed SOLD

This painting is a result of  a special invite to paint a view of the Black River Bottoms in Trempealeau for a little winter plein air. Thanks again Ellen for having me.

The sun was out but winter still had it's way with the wind whipping across the lowlands. I had just enough time to get my impression of the frozen waters and barren trees. A little time in the studio afterwards and I finished the painting.

This was my third attempt to paint plein air in the winter. Pretty proud of myself to still have all my fingers and toes.
