Logs Across Stream, Spring



Wintry woods, still very little color. I found myself looking for water with reflections after all those cattail paintings. Ended up at a stream with deep blues and purples, new green, and warm orange. Peaceful and quiet but for the wind and the spring birds.

10 x 12 inches (25 x 30 cm), oil on board, 2013.











$300 total (frame, shipping, and all taxes included).

Merry Cattails





















Reminding myself to "Play, don't produce" today. (Seems like I remember this on Friday best...maybe it feels like time to play :-)) Scraped the whole thing down at one point and started over, trying to capture the feel of what I was seeing, and the colors on the fly. Sunny and windy, alternately cold and warm; had to wait while the clouds passed for the warm colors to come back. Cool green reflections of trees.

Resting Cattails












Windy, colors shifting. Intimate scene with just a few reeds. I chose the spot for one set of colors and then the light changed, but it was all still pretty so I just kept going, picking up the new colors along the way.
