"Houses by the Lake"6"x6" oil on gessobord
This scene grabbed me the first time I discovered the shore of Winning Pond. All those great houses, and one a vibrant pumpkin color, with wonderful tree shapes, and a reflection to boot! The reflection lasted long enough for me to get the shapes roughed in, but when the wind blew it away, the mosquitoes left too, which was a good trade-off from my point of view. I was able to finish the painting in peace. My favorite part is the reddish tree and the white houses behind it. What's yours?
orange shade is wonderful.Thanks
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love these colors and the shapes you chose to define - nice job!
ReplyDeleteI like the white houses too and the towering pines. Nice painting. What a challenge to paint outside between the blackflies and the wind!
