Haven't painted in a while.  I went back to a limited palette of Venetian Red, cobalt blue, cadmium yellow light, and burnt umber.

This was really tough to paint. I eventually had to go back in the studio and quit looking at it because the light was totally different from when I started.

I've also been calling this plant a philodendron. However, I think it's actually a pothos.  Someone, please correct me.

When I look at the last few paintings I've done, I see more confidence in value, color, and brushstroke. I think that's because I've started them as though I wasn't going to do anything with them (i.e. post or attempt to sell). Lesson?  Stop thinking and paint.

These daffodils were a little unhappy after being pummeled by rain and then picked...I painted this waaaay back in the spring. The last painting from the old house.

I took one day off from moving/unpacking this summer to paint outside.  My easel broke after carrying it 1/4 mile down the Billygoat Trail on the Potomac River, and I nearly gave up. This one makes me happy, though.

This was a super-quick painting - the first painting completed in my new paint studio! Boxes everywhere...I like it, but my camera did not accurately portray the colors.

This is the one painting I was able to "finish" during the Duane Keiser workshop I attended. The workshop was amazing, and it wasn't really about finishing paintings, but being able to pass along your perceptions of an experience in a limited time or even through an unfinished painting. I had about 30 minutes for this one.
