Acrylic on canvas 24″ x 36″ (1,400.00)
A dog, a swing and forsythia
Daffodills, dogwoods and redbuds
The sun shinning above the blue ridge
Tis spring in Virginia
This is a romantic painting started with white and the primary colors stroked and blended for a light background . First begin with the sky, add clouds and begin a sunset. Close your eyes and envision mountains and valleys and trees, then proceed to build a place in time with shadows and dappled light . There is a time for sketches and thumbnails of values, working out compositions, etc. Sometimes we need to just paint and dream.
