Thirty Twenty-eight paintings. Thirty days.
California Impressions # 28-30.
Hey, considering the size of this puppy–3 by 4 feet–I figure taking two days is okay. Four, actually, ’cause it’s not finished.
It would’ve been finished if I’d been happy just making a larger version of this. But I paint like I cook, which is NEVER the same way twice. I was this close (pinch thumb and index finger 1/8 inch apart) this close when I decided it was time to throw some paint on and see how far I could push it.
I’m still ‘sperimentin’ but here’s where it’s at as of this evening.
work in progress
I’ll post a photo of it when it’s finished, should be in the next day or two.
And then I really have to clean things up for Open Studios. It’s coming up this weekend and next.
OMG–clap hands over ears and run in circles shouting, “Holy crap–gots me LOTS to do!!!”
Back in a couple of days. Until then–

This is such a screamin’ California scene. Scattered clusters of wide spreading oaks are a common sight in the lower foothills or the valley floor.
So different from the dense forest where I live. More fun to paint, too!

The Delta. Rivers and marshlands between Sacramento and San Francisco. The train between the cities travels through these wetlands. Feels like the middle of nowhere. A beautiful nowhere.

California Impressions # 23
Change up from the recent paintings. I needed a different palette. Needed to get away from the blue and yellow.
And being that today officially marks the beginning of autumn… I decided to skip ahead and go to winter.

This is the lake–around here the lake means Tahoe–this is THE LAKE in winter. According to me.

It’s gone for now. The winds changed and blew the smoke somewhere else. But not before it had it’s way with da muse.
