This was a particularly hard day for me to find a painting in the landscape. Â The lighting was very even, however, I took the challenge and was fairly happy with at least three of the four paintings of the day. Â Here is a quiet scene of the bottom of a tree in the snow.
At the edge of a city looking out at nature and the remnants of Winter snow. Â I was interested in the expanse and the open feeling of the scene.
Another solitary road in a peaceful place with winter colors around me.
A day or two after “Before the Snow” I went out and painted the scene after the snow. It was a warm day for snow and I enjoyed the clouds in the distance while my foreground was in sunshine.
An old building hidden behind bushes and trees on a deserted road. A quiet and peaceful place on a cloudy winter day.
Another December winter painting along a deserted Kentucky country road.
This is the other painting from my trip to the missed lake. This was a plein air start that I finished in the studio and used my on site notes and value study, other location painting, and a photo reference.
