This photo was taken in the river.
It was cool but refreshing water.
Wouldn't recommend bringing your easel in.

Summer Drive

Greens! They really can be a nuisance to make interesting and the painted space believable.

In this painting I was working on my greens. The tree in the foreground, the grass on the right, the grasses on the left, the foliage in the middle ground, and then the distant everything --- how to play with them to make them interesting and spatially appropriate.

Here is where I ended up. Can't wait to try to do it again!

"Pink Marsh Sky" and "Pink Marsh Morning"

This marsh makes me so delightedly happy. Each time I paint it I learn something new. The colors in the sky are serene and I love a good pink!

Sometimes I play around with the space by playing with the greens, too. Such fun!

Not sure which one of this view I like better. Fun to consider.

"Marsh Greens"

Marsh Greens is a pastel of one of my favorite subjects: Marshes! My husband jokes that my name should be Marsha.

There is something wonderful about painting greens and making the painting have space that recedes into the distance. I love that!
