Summer Landscape Daily Paint 6x6"

6"X6" oil on masonite. Summer is my favorite time of year in the Midwest. This pasture is near my grandmother's farm. I look forward to some plein air painting on this location in the winter. But for now, I bid farewell to another beautiful summer with this painting.

Snow Flurries Frosty Landscape Daily oil Painting



6"x6" The first flurries of the season. The snow falling created a very atmoshperic almost distorted view of the trees. I love the quiet and calmness of fresh snow. Thanks for looking.

Impressionist Poplar Trees Daily Painting Landscape oil


6x6" oil on masonite

"Poplar Sway"
My grandmother's farm is lined by poplars. My grandfather planted them years ago for protection from the harsh winds out of the west, in winter. Here I was inspired from photos and memory of a perfect summer day. The poplar trees all swayed in the breeze. A sweet memory!
It amazes me how the details come together when viewing an impressionist painting from a distance.

"After the Rain" The rain has stopped, the clouds are clearing and the sun will come out and dry up the water in the pasture.
