The warmer weather today put me in mind of summer days...soon to be ours! Well, not quite. This little stream is probably quite frozen today. But, our days are getting significantly longer and for that I am very grateful. For now I can make due with these longer days, memories of time spent by a babbling brook and the happiness that comes with being in a warm place and painting!

Remembering Summer

Into the Woods
Tree Study 8"x10" oil on canvas
The effects of our very long autumn linger on. Painting trees is always a challenge for me...how to give them individual character and to convey that they are really rooted in the ground. I enjoy the play of shadows and light on the ground and on the trees.
