This was done at about 7am one very windy, cold morning, from the back of my car. I sat on the tailgate, with the hatch popped open, and painted as fast as I could!
The sun was breaking through the mist and hitting the front of this cabin. I liked the contrast of the sharp edges on the cabin in relation to the mountain behind which was still shrouded in cloud cover.
I had a really pleasant experience painting this group of pots at a local garden center. I sat on a bench in the shade, eating my lunch as I painted. I managed to keep my brush out of my mouth...
I paint because it brings me a sense of satisfaction and ease. Whether it's landscapes or still lifes, I am reminded of the depth and complexity of the world I otherwise often take for granted. My goal is to share that sense of wonder and awe through my paintings.
