Bough Down

48"x42"
Acrylic on Canvas

Now this is the larger studio painting that I created, based on the original study below.  Something does get lost in transition, though I really played with the bronze and gold paints on this one, which is hard to see in the photo. I am now on a iridescent and metallic paint kick.   More to come!

Bough Down (Study)

12"x12"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD

This is a plein air piece that was created a few weeks ago went the fall colours were at their peak.  An artist friend and I parked ourselves at the edge of a beaver pond for the day, and enjoyed the golden light and glorious colours.  I only appreciate that so much more today when the wind is howling and it is rainy and cold. Winter is coming!

Through the Looking Glass

24"x20"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD

Had a fantastic time out plein air painting with my friend Deirdre yesterday.  We were hanging out in Metcalfe forest, which is just a magical kind of place.  Though my canvas from yesterday needs a bit of work,  I took a ton of great photos which will inspire many new pieces.

This is a painting that I completed a couple of weeks ago.  Usually I struggle with naming paintings, though this one came to mind quite easily (and I love the name too).  I have found that it helps me to keep a running list of potential titles that I could use for paintings.  About 50% of the time I will use a name from the list, and other times the title will appear in the old noggin' during or after I have painted a piece.  How do you name your paintings?
