#126 - Harvest Bales

It was 15F outside today, but 72F on my easel. I took this someplace in Missouri on the way to visit my son at KU.

#125 - Home Away from Home

8" x 10" Oil on canvas panel.

I painted this for my mother-in-law. My wife grew up traveling all over the country every summer seeing countless national parks, and spending evenings in this Apache pop-up.

#120 - Stearns Woods Walk

Late last summer I took a day off and went out to a nearby conservation area and set up on a path looking north. I liked the way the morning sun through tall cool shadows on the path.
