The bold shapes & colors that you use are fantastic!
I have tried plein air painting several times but struggle, as you mention, w/ the shifting light. Your quick, simplified painting has tackled the task quite successfully. Nice work.
I appreciate your comment, Aubrey. I sympathize with your struggle--the painting is never as thrilling as what I'm seeing--but then again, wouldn't be looking or feeling as deeply if I wasn't painting!

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".
