Vase and Apple

I don't do still life paintings often, but it is fun on occasion. It is almost time to get some flowers for this vase in a week or so.

Stump

Just a stump in a field. I liked the textures and colors and the bleak aspect of the lone stump in a big field.

Maple Bark

It was a gray, drizzly day as I sat next to the cabin window in Greenfield, Tennessee and painted this painting​. I enjoyed depicting the texture and color of this maple tree. This is my first painting of 2017.

Bend In The Trail

I went out yesterday and sat beside this local biking/walking trail and did this painting on site... I put the bicyclist in when I got back home.

I didn't have any yellow paint left in my portable palette, but I did have a yellow watercolor pencil to help create the bright yellow-greens. It worked out nicely.

I also messed up the drawing of the bend in the road and realized I did not have my kneaded eraser...so I packed everything up again, trudged back to the car, grabbed the eraser and trudged back to my painting spot.
