At Ginger Blossom's

"At Ginger Blossom's" 6" x 6"  Oil on canvas panel

I painted today at Ginger Blossom's farm and artifact establishment. This monolith is a part of the complex of buildings, sculpture, furniture and folk art.  Oh, my, what beauteous things there were.  The day was heavenly, the company terrific and so was the scenery.

Today was my first plein air painting day of the season.

Glazed

"Glazed" 12" x 12" Oil on wrapped canvas

There are nearly a dozen solo silos whose barns are long-since gone on my way to my critique class.. The ice-glazed snow this past week made some of them ... strikingly lovely.  

Snow and ice almost always dictate a high key painting—light in value.

Sentinel

"Sentinel" 10" x 10" Oil on hardboard

The house was gone, a small barn stood next to the helmeted-sentinel that guarded the edge of the property.  It was cold, too cold to paint on site, so I photographed the shivering duo, and wandered back to the comfort of my warm vehicle.  

December is here. I'm bracing for a long winter.
