Most people go for the burgers . . . I go for the mahi mahi with peach mango salsa!

Sunflowers




Oil
9 x 12



The Debra Huse workshop was supposed to be plein air, but Indiana weather didn't cooperate. One of the days, we could choose between a still life, the sunflowers, or bring a photo to paint. I worked on the landscapes shown in the prior post. However, the sunflower paintings were gorgeous and cheery . . . so I painted them yesterday.

I recently had the wonderful opportunity to attend a workshop with impressionist painter Debra Huse. These are the three paintings I completed.

Hay Harvest



Oil
16 x 20

Sold

Took the summer off and started painting again a few weeks ago. Probably not a good idea to take such a long break - I forgot some important painting tips. But it's coming back now. Driving through Indiana late summer reveals some beautiful rural scenes.
