Morning Light Show 12x16 oil on linen panel

I created this as a demo for the Mansfield Art Association.  When planning this painting I did a value study and a small color study. I've also created a 9x12 of the same scene. When I put so much in the planning the execution is a spontaneous reaction.I touched it up a bit in the studio, signed  it and called it finished.

On a Rural Route 8x10 oil on canvas

My goal with this small study was to focus on the values of each shape. It forced me to create shapes with values attached. It was a fun practice and one I picked up from a friend, Beth Eschbach. She provided a demo with the Lake Granbury Art Association on values. It is always inspiring to see another artist's process.

A Morning Sunny 14x11 oil on canvas

Wow, this was a fun one to paint. This one seemed to paint itself.  This was based on one of my sunrise photos taken on the road to Ft. Worth from Granbury. A lot of the area is undeveloped and pleasing to the soul.

All Lined Up 12x16 oil on Ampersand Board

We took a drive to find new ideas for a landscape painting.  I found the  line of cedar trees appealing. I love the way  the yellow grasses highlighted the trees and leads you in to the distant views.

Hunting Zone 12x16 oil on canvas

This was inspired from a trip to Rough Creek Lodge. This is an upscale hunting lodge located in Glen Rose. The dirt road lead to a sweet hunting spot that was off limits to us. I know there must be more inspiring views down this road.

Lake Side Gold 7x14 oil on canvas

I was so grateful for warm sunny weather recently. A few of us from our drawing group took our paints outside. We set up on the banks of Lake Granbury.  The tall golden grasses provide a fun focus.  It was windy, but so great to get outside and paint.

A Ride in the Country 11x14 oil on canvas

Here Comes the Sun 11x14 oil on canvas

Here comes the sun with the promise of a beautiful day. Seeing a spectacular sunrise can change my attitude for the rest of the day. It is such a joy to recreate one on canvas.

Autumn in Texas 24x36 oil on canvas

Sold

I painted this as a commission for a customer of Dutch Art Gallery. It was similar to one they have hanging in the gallery.  That one wasn't big enough, so I enlarged it a bit. It was based on the landscape in Glen Rose at Rough Creek Lodge. I was pleased to deliver this one this week.
