Gotcha, Realistic Impressionism, Wildlife, Heron,

"Gotcha"

This is a tri-colored heron. A couple of weeks ago, he was fishing near me while I was painting on location. He didn't seem to mind me at all. I took a ton of pictures and got about four outstanding shots. I combined a couple of them for this painting.

Overcome, Plein Air, Impressionism, Palms

"Overcome"

8 x 10 inches

Acrylic on canvas

SOLD

Went out with the Treasure Coast Plein Air Painters group yesterday. It was fun. We were painting at White City Park.

When I saw this little palm hanging out, I had to paint it. I love these palms because you know at one time they were blown over. The growth pattern tells me that at one time this tree started to turn and grow back up even after it was blown down. It reminds me of all the times we have to change course in life, and overcome hardships. We don't have to let things become an excuse to destroy us. Just like this tree is more interesting because it kept going, so are we.

"Surpassing"

Acrylic on gessoed board

I was thinking about peace as I painted this. Sometimes things are too painful to think about, or too hard to understand. When we pray, there is peace of mind, and we don't have to have the answers, just faith that God will work it all out like he says he will.

I hid an angel in the clouds. The sand was fun, lots of texture and contrast. I also like the way these colors play off of each other.

This is a commissioned painting.

At Lake Istokpoga, Impressionism, Plein Air

"At Lake Istokpoga"

5 x 7 inches

Acrylic on hardboard

This is the third painting I did Tuesday out at Lake Istokpoga (iss-ta-po-ga). This small painting has a very simple composition, yet it works well. I was very happy with the lighting and the movement. I did it alla prima (all in one session).

Lake Istokpoga, Plein Air Landscape, Impressionism

"Lake Istokpoga"

8 x 10 inches

Acrylic on hardboard

I headed north of here, toward Sebring yesterday morning. (This lake is pronounced iss-ta-poe-ga.) It was so nice out that I stayed until lunch time. I did three paintings, which I will be posting over the next couple of days.

The wind was kind to keep me cool. There were lots of trees for shade, and so many birds posing for me, that I had to keep stopping for more pictures! What a great morning.

I added the birds after I got home, I just couldn't leave them out! smile.

Resting Place, impressionism landscape, birds, barn

"Resting Place"

8 x10 inches

Acrylic on hardboard

Not Available

Hundreds of egrets just kept coming to roost in this old tree. It was an amazing sight! By the time they all found a spot the tree looked like it was nothing but white dots. I added the barn for interest and made the pond a little larger to repeat the feeling of movement and balance.

Waiting, Impressionism Landscape, Bird

"Waiting"

9 x 12 inches

Acrylic on canvas board
SOLD

While I was out painting yesterday morning I took some good pictures of this great blue heron. He was hard to see at first because he did not move at all. I thought he was just a rock!

I really got lost in all those rocks, just kept adding more and more thick paint. It was fun.

Partly Cloudy, Daily Painting, Palms

"Partly Cloudy"

8 x 10 inches

Acrylic on hardboard

I did this painting from memory. It is really fun to just make it up based on previous plein air works, and previous studies. This is from my back view again. I have done these in different color schemes, and at different times of the day. Depending on which direction I look I get a different set of palms. I really like the way this one has turned out. The sun is coming through all the clouds, and the birds are headed out toward the lake (which is on the other side of the dike.)
