Roadside Farmhouse

Painted this one on the side of the road in Waterview, Kentucky this afternoon. My favorite moment was when I looked up at a passing car to see the passenger giver me the Bullwinkle hands to the ears and sticking their tongue out.

Here's a pic of the painting still on the easel on location. I'll get a better pic of it in the studio later.

Lake and Tree Landscape

I try to keep pushing past my comfort zone to keep me on my toes. This one is more abstract than a lot of my others, even the small ones done in a similar style. I didn't tighten up at all and left a lot to the viewer's eye. I know it's not to many people's taste, those that like the traditional landscape, but I like it. And it felt gooood.
