McKinley Park, Spring

A plein air painting I created from a scene in McKinley Park.  This piece I had to come back to the studio and finesse it somewhat as it was a particularly cloudy and sunny combination of an afternoon and the color and shadows were shifting every few minutes.

Table Top #2

One of the 4 paintings I've created for the "Table Top" Collection.  This painting I did from a still life set up in the studio, using my mother's china.  I generally prefer to paint in warm tones, so I was experimenting with the blue hues.

Aspen Grove plein air
from last autumn's plein air outing with artist buddies, Abigail VanCannon and Randy Blasquez,  The color was amazing and a painter's paradise in this aspen grove just outside of Truckee.
