Opposites Attract

A second still life for day 11, with different apples. Yesterday's apples were consumed immediately after posting, with wine and cheese. It was a great dinner 

Three's a Crowd

I'm one third of the way through the painting challenge, and unfortunately I am running out of gas. The weather doesn't allow me to go outside to paint. I am getting off work so late there is no daylight left, therefore, I am tired and lacking the ability to concentrate very long. Here is a still life, fresh off the easel. Now its time for a glass of wine.

Day 5, #stadaeasel,
It's snowing outside today, so that means a snow day in Louisville. Not sure if I'm going to venture out in the snow just yet so I painted a quick still life. I haven't done one in a long time, so it was fun!

Cypress

A sunny day at last to go do a quick( it's coollddd) painting of the plethora of cypress to choose from.

Another day of painting in the fog (and drizzle).  Everything was so monochromatic except for a few patches of green and red.

Day 2, Stada easel 31/31 challenge

We have had fog in the morning (and into afternoons) in the Ohio valley for several days now. It makes for interesting subject matter, and the colors are still. This painting has more color in it then just black and white if you look hard enough you will find blue, pink and orange.

Bald Cypress

Happy New Year!

Painting in the fog this morning, and with a subject matter that is the first thing I look at each morning from my deck...two 30" Bald Cypress Trees.
