Winter Gold

Winter Gold
Acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, 4x4
The winding creeks of Missouri fill me with inspiration!  I return to local creeks from time to time - and the paintings almost always look different with the changes of season and light.  A funny thing happens when I go to name these paintings.  I often come up with the same name for paintings done in the same place.  Almost always, as I am painting in a spot, a title just comes to me as I work. Sometimes, it even comes to me when I first set eyes on the landscape.  I always need to check my paintings before posting, just to be sure I don't title two paintings from the same place, with the same name!  This painting makes 1122 in 1122 days, and Day 29 in the 30 Day Painting Challenge.

  9. Love your winter scene! Perfectly balanced--the colors are spot on too.(I do not like to use 'spot on' but it was the only thing I could think to say without repeating perfect). xo

  10. The water really leads us to through your painting! Well done with painting so much.

    Do you varnish any of your paintings? If so, what product do you use?

    Thank you for sharing your talents with us!
