Yes this is a landscape painting if I would have to put it into a category but with unusual shapes, color and transparency, I know we are not suppose to have favorites but this one makes me so happy and it was a joy to paint.

Complex Blending of Nature [NFS]
Sold out
Acrylic on 30 x 40 deep canvas float mounted in black floater frame.
This was from a plein air painting session where I was sitting along the lake with the reflections of the trees. The clouds would change, creating a different light which continued to give me another perspective.
The location of where I painted this was in Carlton, Oregon, in the wine growing area of Oregon. The name of the painting is a play off of terms used while tasting wine.

Cold Wax and Oil on birch panel. This is framed with a 16x 20 black floater frame and ready for your wall.
I took color license with this painting. On one of my walks there was a bank of boulders and logs. I started with a monochromatic pallet but I could not help myself, I had to bring in color. I love the effect of Cold Wax and Oil, it has an illumination that works so well with this painting.

I was painting this during Hurricane Ian. Listening to the news when everyone was waiting for it to hit land.. The name Finding my Way popped into my head. How were people going to find their way after the devastation?
OK....I have to brag a bit. This won a competition of over 1800 artists and was selected by Anita Rodgers, New York Gallery, to place in the top 50.
