            It’s that time of year when it feels like darkness lasts far too long and periods of light are getting shorter and shorter. I think that’s why I was drawn to paint this scene from one of my trips. I was hiking through fairly dark woods but found a gap in the trees where I could see this light-filled meadow alongside a beautiful lake.

            Hope your weekend is filled with light!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Weekend!

            Another grey day in Georgia has me wishing I was somewhere, anywhere, where the sun is shining so I painted a sunny day at the beach....where people are relaxed and happy and there are no papers or exams to grade. I can hear the waves and the sea gulls calling me.

            I hope wherever you are, you enjoy a Happy Weekend!

        Fall has come a little later than usual to the southeast. This luckily allowed us to still enjoy beautiful colors in the mountains even though we weren’t able to get away until late October. I could look out and paint these dazzling trees ablaze with fall colors; a welcome sight on a cold, wet, dreary day.

        Happy Weekend!

            I love apples in the fall! I don’t seem to eat them much during the rest of the year but autumn is when they taste so delicious! And on a cold, gray, and rainy day, I found the reds and oranges in these apples so warm and inviting that I had to paint them.....especially before I forgot and ate them all!

            Happy Weekend!

We're All Pumpkins!

            Given that Halloween is coming up soon, I was drawn to paint pumpkins this week. As I sorted through my reference photos, with the news on in the background, I kept hearing about all of the conflicts between humans. I couldn’t help but think of how pumpkins come in all different sizes and several different colors....like us. I imagined these pumpkins saying to the viewer, “Hey, we’re all pumpkins”!

             Have a Happy and Harmonious Weekend!

It Tastes Better Here

            I’ve always been drawn to rolling green hills, quiet meadows and trees, and if there’s a body of water, then that’s just a bonus. These are some of the quintessential elements defining a pastoral scene and as a landscape artist, it shouldn’t be a surprise that I love painting them. On this day, a lone cow wandered away from the rest of the herd and seemed to prefer the grass over here or maybe it was the view.

            Happy Weekend!
