Strom's Coming

Another rainy sky, quite a storm and beautiful. We ended up painting under the shelter of a friends porch. We finally have sun now and lots of green. So I will be adding some summer paintings soon.

Spring Sky

Willows on a Wet Spring Day

Our Wednesday painting group braved the cold wet day (May 11th) and painted under the protection of a friends porch roof. The clouds floated into the distant mountain and the red and yellow willows filled the foreground with color! Still a few small patches of snow yet to melt. Matted 17 1/2" x 14 1/4" - $180

Spring Green

Last Monday, May 9th, Ceci and I were looking for a place to paint and ended up in her backyard - what more could one ask for ... flowing water, flowers, green grass and nice shadows. Matted 17 1/2" x 14 1/4" $170
