#194 - Monet's Pond

 8" x 10" oil on panel

Now for something completely different from my normal rural Illinois! My son and daughter-in-law were recently in Giverny visiting Monet's home and studio and he sent me the picture I painted this from. 

#193 - Down the Road

 12" x 16" Oil on canvas panel

A scene from a November drive in the country.

#192 - 2020

 8" x 10" Oil on canvas panel

This scene grabbed my attention as I was driving by because it summed up so much of what life has been like lately: a lot of work, heads down, moving forward, trying not to notice how bleak it is around us. Hang in there, we'll get over the horizon and it will be spring again soon.

I had a hard time coming up with a title for this one and then just decided to call it 2020.

#191 - Corner Coffee

 12" x 9" Oil on canvas panel

Had a great breakfast and latte at Black Lodge Coffee Roasters in New Harmony, Indiana last fall. Nice people, cool place and great coffee.
