Winter

We finally had some winter. The bipolar express came through Mississippi with temps going from near 70 last week to the 20's this week.

I was finally in the mood to do a painting this weekend from a snow dusting we got last year. This scene from Scenic MS Hwy 5 - near Hickory Flat, MS where my in laws live.

Sorry I'm behind blogging....I'm getting ready for a solo show and speed painting...Photos below don't need explanations, I don't think. This is pretty much how I paint most of the time.

  3. Dot I love how you handled the back ground trees early in your process here, using the color shaper. It's very effective and the final piece is beautiful
