Sunset Revised - SOLD


Sunset revised
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 16" x 20"
SOLD.

This one is revised from a September 5th piece called Evening Melody.
I have softened the colors in the foreground, lightened the blues in the clouds, and softened the oranges overall. I think this is much more cohesive.

Thanks for looking.

Fall Rambling - SOLD


Fall Rambling
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 16" x 20"
SOLD.


Isn't this one lovely? My kind of a fall afternoon, a little dreamy, warm, a bit of hazy sunshine, and scattered leaves on the ground.

Thinking Fall - SOLD


Thinking Fall
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 16" x 20"
SOLD.

Have you noticed the trees just beginning to turn? Are there leaves on the ground already?
Here in Maryland, we've got signs of fall everywhere, some cool mornings, leaves on the ground, school buses.... Anyway, this is the first of the fall paintings, and there will be more. I love this time of year, in a melancholy way, sad to see it getting dark earlier, sad to know that summer is as good as over.
