             I’ve always been drawn to high contrast scenes, where the sun illuminates features against a darker background. When I first saw this cliff face across the bay, the light was shining on it and I was transfixed. I ended up taking so many photos because it kept changing subtly depending on where I stood. I think this is one of the many reasons I became a landscape artist: because the natural world offers us a never-ending number of striking scenes to enjoy.

            Happy Weekend!

This is a painting I started on location this summer and finished in the studio. When I picked it up, I considered changing the weather from cloudy, rainy, and cool to sunny but it matched today’s weather in North Georgia so closely that I decided to merely clean it up a bit. You might notice though, if you look closely, that I couldn’t resist putting just a hint of a beautiful sunset peaking out from beneath some of those gray clouds.

Hope your weekend is a sunny, happy one!
