The Valley
Day 14 of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge.
Oil, 6"x 6" canvas, 1.5" sides. No need to frame.
Highway 127 in Tennessee goes through the Sequatchie Valley, and Highway 111 crosses over it and has this wonderful overlook. It's beautiful in all the seasons.

Wisteria Wannabe
Day 13 of 30 Paintings in 30 Days. Oil, 6"x 6" canvas, 1.5" sides painted black. No need to frame.
This experiment of painting abstract landscapes has been quite interesting. I have an idea of what I want to paint, and
the result is nothing like it! I think I rely too much on the reference photos, and should probably use my imagination
more. This painting looks more like octopuses, or snarls of purple spaghetti! Will keep plugging along.
I LOVE wisteria, and enjoy seeing it draped over trees in all the wooded areas around town in the spring. For a noxious weed, it's really beautiful. I know some people plant it on purpose, but most of it is just purple gone wild!

Oil, 6"x 6" canvas, 1.5" sides painted black. No need to frame.
An abstract version of a beautiful sunset over the Shenandoah Mountains in Virginia.
I just can't resist photographing clouds, skies, and especially sunsets.

Blue Sundown
Day 11 of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge.
Oil, 6"x 6" canvas with 1.5" sides painted black. No need to frame.
A third of the way through the challenge! This is a sky we saw traveling in Virginia. I'm really fascinated by
clouds and all the forms they can take, and the colors of the sky.

Now that winter is finally bringing really cold weather, I'm thinking of Spring, and gardening for me, golf for my husband.

Field of Weeds
Day 8 of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge. Oil, 6"x 6" on canvas, 1.5" sides painted black. No need to frame. An empty lot in our neighborhood--the shades of green I used in the middle might make you think it's a river! And I just realized that the green at the top looks more like mountains than the trees and shrubs that it's supposed to be. I'm learning! :)
