This beautiful morning I followed the plow into this park and liked the look of the fresh snow hanging on this tree.

I like the angle of the bridge in the composition and the play of the bright snow to the trees. Â The light was very bland on this day and it forced me to look at shape, color and composition to come up with a scene. Â It was peaceful.

Another solitary road in a peaceful place with winter colors around me.

Another December winter painting along a deserted Kentucky country road.

On my way back from the middle of nowhere, I stopped and started this little painting of a tree. It was a beautiful day.

Every place and every season has it’s color scheme and the colors of a Kentucky winter can be surprisingly enchanting with golds and oranges set against greys and greens.

I was following directions on google maps through my phone. My destination was a lake. I was unfamiliar with the area, so it wasn’t until I had reached my destination that I realized I was several miles off course at an old farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. However, as an artist, the middle of nowhere is sometimes a good place to be, so I got out my paint box.

This forest of trees caught my eye because of the implied natural pattern in the trees and foreground grass. Â It became an experiment in pattern and texture.

I was interested in the layers of this vertical scene of the foreground brush, fence, field, and distant hill.
