This painting went through many transformations.
It started out with a yellow and dark green background, but when I looked up yesterday and those yellow leaves were hanging brilliantly against the gorgeous blue sky I couldn't resist.

painting, this is 18" x 24" and surely inspired plein air. I came this close _ to taking a pair of scissors to it. The day before yesterday I has said that's it I'm done and walked away.
and then in a sudden fury of palette knife hours that tumbled by I finished the piece into something that makes sense visually for me. I was trying to explain to my Read more:Plein

Untitled Moment 2007-03-30 01:29:00 For the most part, titles for my paintings come to me as I'm outside painting. Words, thoughts, emotions, little snippets of poetry float through my mind and usually something stands out enough to become a title.
This piece didn't have a simple, strong or direct expression.
I could call it Ruby 2, or Red Moment
or nothing, it is what it is.
