Falling for Color

 The greens of summer have given way to the drama of fall. It can be difficult to render all the greens we have in Midwest. Summer rain makes for such a lush valley but after awhile it becomes kinda mundane and the artist in me loves the change of season and the change of color to paint.

Here are some of my latest oil paintings celebrating color. 

From a woodland hike at Pike Lake State Park in the heart of Kettle Moraine.

To the highway 35 overlook of Lake Onalaska.

Just down the street from me a neighbors glorious riot of color that greets me as I return home.

I fortunately don't have to look far from home to see some beautiful sights.
