Paradox

We love the heat of summer and paradoxically, the cool, refreshing shade of large trees.  I painted this in Winthrop in Eastern Washington State.  The trees and hayfields were large --from one edge of my field of view to the other in all directions, but captured in a 4" x 6" acrylic miniature.  This little treasure was SOLD at the Whidbey Art Gallery in Langley, Washington

Another Red Barn

The rich red color of barns is a natural complement to the beautiful greens and golds of the fields surrounding them. They are irresistable as subjects to paint. I found this one on a painting expedition near Winthrop, in eastern Washington. This small painting is only 7 x 5 and painted in acrylic. and SOLD at the Artists of South Whidbey Galleria show in Langley in December of 2010.
