I am still challenged to capture the brilliant colors of a fleeting sunset on canvas.  This beautiful sunset was on Lake Granbury on a warm fall evening.  A fine time to spend  on the water.

Aster and Company Garden 9x12

Aster and Company Garden 9x12 oil on canvas

I created this at the Master's Garden in Granbury.  This was during my last visit there and the weather was perfect. The Garden has proved to be a source of inspiration for me.  It's packed with plenty of color and good spot for a plein air painter.

Rosy Glow, 9x12

Rosy Glow 9x12 oil on canvas

This is an older painting that wasn't working for me. I was either going to destroy it or throw more paint at is. I choose to add more color and have fun with the warm colors. Outrageous color is my way of abstracting a landscape.

Garden Gate 14x11

Garden Gate
14x11 oil on canvas panel
Sold
This was inspired from  a plein air outing with my friend, Joyce and my sister Patti.  We met at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford, Texas.  The gardens offer a quiet sanctuary and was a wonderful place to spend the day painting. 
It sold to a friend of mine. She bought it for her mother, who is a master gardner, and has at worked at Chandor Gardens. What a great present!

Thank you Victoria!

Early Light 14x11

Early Light 14x11 oil on canvas panel

This landscape was inspired from an area along the bike path in Benbrook, Texas. The painting started from a photo, but soon took on it's on color scheme and design.  I like to use the photos as simply a suggestion and let it develop from there.
