             The basis for this painting comes from a reference photo I took while staying briefly at a place called the Cameron House near Balloch, Scotland. Stepping outside of this luxurious hotel is the beautiful Loch Lomond, green rolling hills, and magnificent views no matter where you look.  Looking across the lake, you might see a view something like this.

            Last summer I was lucky enough to spend some time on Orcas Island off the coast of Washington.  I was wandering around taking photos and trying to pick out a good place to paint when I spotted this beautiful tree that just seemed to be basking in the sunshine. With the blue sky behind it, this seemed the perfect portrait of a magnificent tree on a gorgeous summer day.

            What a great location for a home! Your house nestled in the lee of these mountains and looking out over green meadows, sprinkled with yellow flowers.....not a bad location. Spring will be here before we know it!

            I enjoy painting hay bales for some reason. I don’t know if it’s because of some romantic notion of farm life or I’m drawn to the shapes and colors, or maybe even because it usually signals (hopefully), the end of warm, humid weather. Whatever the reason, this scene just seems peaceful and serene to me, something I always value in a landscape.

            Happy Weekend!
