646 Hwy 20 Hill


Hwy 20 Hill
oil on canvas
12x12"
$360

     I am studying landscapes. Not strong in this department.
     It is fun though to go on field trips, taking a picnic lunch and the dog, to gather material.
     This scene told me I did not know how to paint clouds. I enjoyed researching that and found that there are many, many, many ways.
     This view along Hwy 20, near Bridgeport, is a typical California scene at this time of year.

645 Mendocino Cliff


Mendocino Cliff
oil on canvas
12x12"
$360

     I am enjoying learning about Tonalism, so I am trying my hand at it. I hope to do more because I find it very interesting and moody. I am also trying the new thing for me which is landscape on square canvas. I like this one. I think it is cute. (Can something be both cute and moody?)
