Painting in Progress

I will from time to time, on this blog, give an update of a painting I am working on. I have always liked the work of the American impressionist George Sotter, and especially his night paintings. This influence has led me to create one of my own. This painting has the under-painting in and the sky almost complete. I used a combination of thalo blue and cadmium red light for the dark values and painted the cloud cover in-wet. At completion this painting will be posted here and in my Etsy shop.

Red Desert

Welcome to my first day of posting on this blog.

Today I am posting one of my paintings from the desert southwest. I enjoy painting this area of the country and am amazed by the vast array of color found here. This original panoramic acrylic painting is 18 X 28 on gallery wrapped canvas. I extend my paintings to include all edges and this painting can be hung as is without frame if desired.
