Last Light

"Last Light" 6" x 6" Oil on hardboard

Night is upon us, there's no turning back, hope you have something to do for the next nine hours or so.  This last bit of color is all there'll be until morning. 

It isn't easy to paint yellow in a blue sky without turning it green. Careful planning and specific pigments of yellow can insure success, if you know what to use.

Creek View

"Creek View" 5" x 7" Oil on hardboard

The sun had snuggled behind the pines for the night. She left a nightlight on the creek for the last few stragglers to find their way to shelter.

It has snowed again in my zip code, but it was fast and furious and melted before noon, the way it should be in a State that is not dependent on the white stuff for its economy… like Colorado.
