Good Morning Fly Over

Good Morning Fly Over 11x14 oil on canvas panel

I recently visited Lake Texoma and took my kayak. I took it out in the early morning to take advantage of mild conditions. The heron birds were nesting all around and would take off as I approached the shore.  Its was a great time to disconnect and enjoy the scenery.

Snow on the Mountain Flowers

Snow on the Mountain Flowers 8x10 oil on canvas

When you see fields and fields of white flowers you pull over to snap a few photos. They bloom in late August and are a sign cooler weather is on the way. It is the same with milkweed and purple thistle flowers. I read this from my former biology teacher's post recently.  I didn't know this and will pay closer attention next year.

View from the Point 8x10 on ampersand board

This is another plein air painting from my trip to Lake Texoma. Three sisters and a brother in law painted along with me.  They each choose their own subjects and enjoyed the pleasant weather and views. We created a beautiful memory of time spent with family.

Marina with a View

Marina View 9x12 oil on wood panel

It was a perfect morning for painting at Lake Texoma last weekend.  The weather was picture perfect with low winds.  I travelled with my family and there were several of us painting from the point. The others were close by fishing and catching! It was a spectacular morning.

A Day at the Farm

A Day at the Farm

11x 14 oil on wood panel

I painted in Fredericksburg recently and had to stop at the Wild Seed Farm. We bought seeds and wondered around the gardens. We were delighted when we found fields of zinna's, cosmos and sunflowers. The butterflies and humming birds were fluttering everywhere.

Warm Autumn Light

Warm Autumn Light 11x14 oil on canvas

I created this in the studio yesterday after a painting trip to Fredericksburg. I painted a sunrise during the plein air event with The Good Art Company. The  glow of the morning light on the dried grasses and wild sunflowers was striking on the cool dirt road. I was inspired at every turn.

Barons Creekside

Barons Creekside 11x14 oil on canvas

I created this during the Good Art Company Plein Air event in Fredericksburg this week. We stayed at Barons Creekside. The cabins are each very unique and developed with recycled windows, doors and furnishings.  The creek runs through the middle of the cabins and provided great views. . It was a joy to paint along the sounds of the flowing water and gentle breeze.

Cool morning light is what inspired this painting. Just as the sun peeks over the tree tops the colors and shapes come to life.

Heron Blues

Heron Blues 14x11 oil on canvas

 I can't help but be inspired from living on the lake. The colors and wild life grace the landscape. This great heron often greets us as we cruise out in the morning. This must be a good fishing spot.

The Play of Light

The Play of Light 9x12 oil on canvas

The play of light on the lake is a never ending display of color.  During the summer we take the boat out in the early hours or as the sun goes down. It is always a beautiful display.

We experience a feeling of peace and a connection to nature. I hope this painting provides you a moment of peace.

Dreamy Sunrise

Dreamy Sunrise 14x11 oil on canvas

This painting evolved from a couple of field studies from the master garden in Granbury. I stirred in a few twist and turns in the small creek leading the eye thru the scene. It was a fun exercise in letting go of the reality and going with a dreamy sunrise.

Summer Garden

Summer Garden 9x12 oil on wood panel

This is my second painting I did at the master's garden in Granbury.  The mornings are starting off cooler these days. So hopefully I will be able to get out more often. There is just nothing like painting on location. It was surprising to find so much in bloom.

Effects of the Morning Light

Effects of the Morning Light

8x10 oil on canvas

After witnessing this gorgeous sunrise, I couldn't wait to paint it. 

The clouds seemed to swirl in a design pointed to the sun.

It makes me grateful for a day filled with promise. This was created using my palette knife and lots of creamy colors.
