#237 Seaside

Click to buy! (10x10 inch oil)

I painted another beach painting.  Started it yesterday, but only had a very short time to paint and so finished it today.  I still have a lot to learn about painting this type of scene but it was fun to change things up!

#235 Rest

SOLD (12x12 inch oil)

Painted for this week's Challenge- The Water Challenge.  Though I live in landlocked Oklahoma I love the beach.  Obviously, it is beautiful.  But it also reminds me of the bigness and faithfulness of God.  It was fun to paint...using my favorite colors.

#210 Homeward Bound

SOLD 10x10 inch oil

I took the reference photo for this painting while I was driving home from the art workshop in Alabama.  I think this was Arkansas.  I had a great trip home.  It was long, but the weather was beautiful and I listened to an audiobook, which helped pass the time!  Ever since painting clouds for the Daily Paintworks Challenge a few weeks ago, I've been wanting to paint more.  I'm going to try to sell this piece framed at the Indie Trunk Show next weekend.  If it doesn't sell there, I will list it online!

#206 Light on Berry

Click to buy! (6x6 in.)

I took the photo reference for this painting about a month ago, sitting at a stoplight, when I was taking my daughter to AWANA.  The clouds in the sky were beautiful that evening.  I took a couple of other photo references at lights and maybe I will get around to painting them, too.  I'm glad I attempted more clouds.  I had a little more of a plan for how to approach them this second time.  I started by painting the lightest parts, then the darkest values, and then the values in between.  Seemed to work pretty well.  What is your process for painting clouds?

#204 The Cloud Challenge

Click to buy!  (6x6 in.)

This week's Daily Paintworks Challenge is to paint clouds.  Since I've never painted a cloudscape, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to give it a try.  It was definitely challenging!  I respect artists who paint cloudscapes even more now.  It was hard for me to slow down and really pay attention to the value and color shifts in the clouds.
