The Winter Creek Again













Pretty much the same bend in the creek, just a wider view.

Bright Winter



















Decided to be fair to winter and do a sunny winter scene along the lines of my last two larger winter pieces. Still keeping it simple, we're painting openness and air here not a conventional landscape. The landscape is the language not the message.

In the Heart of Winter



















All week this was little more than sky and a line of trees. I wanted to do something along the lines of The Blanket of Winter, but not a just re-arrangement of the elements. Yesterday it came to me to combine elements of those watercolor style paintings I did with the more stark and abstrated thick paint winter ones and this is what I ended up with.
