| Farmhouse in the Flint Hills 14x11, oil on panel |
We drove through the Flint Hills yesterday on our way to K-State for a competition. These hills are so beautiful - and full of paintable landscapes. Anyone driving from Topeka to Manhattan will recognize this farmhouse sitting back in the hills just north of I-70. It was fun capturing the light on the golden winter grasses, and the purplish tree branches. I need to go back when I can the whole day to painting! This is day 26 of the 30 day painting challenge - and I have learned so much this month! I heard from a friend on Friday that life begins outside of your comfort zone - can this be true?
I do love the neutrals in your trees and the buildings look wonderful, too.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teddy! I was using the italian yellow earth paint today. It is coarsely ground - I got it at Coldsnow's. The texture of the paint is very coarse - and thick, so fun to play with :)
