To Have and To Hold

Did this little plein air piece this morning at the local park in town. It feels good to lean more toward the impressionist side of things.

Good Vibrations

I took a large, 30" x 40", stretched canvas out yesterday afternoon in the hopes of filling it with beautiful, luscious paint. I decided on a scene of rolling hills, trees, and distant mountains. I set up my gear beside a road going to  Dale Hollow Lake State Resort Park and talked to quite a few folks that stopped in the road. Had my picture taken by a few also. It was a very enjoyable excursion.

I'm including some pics of the work in progress, as well as the finished painting.
