Rainy Morning in the Colorado Mountains

This is the second painting I completed while vacationing in Colorado. An 8x10, Oil. That morning started off soft and rainy. I loved the subdued colors of the mountains in the distance. Same vantage point from our condo balcony looking a little to the right of the first painting. Getting a slightly different composition. Still wonderful setting...Listening to the mountain stream, sipping hot coffee. Had to dress a little warmer that morning! Got down to the 40's during the previous night. Thanks for looking.

Isaiah 30:18
"Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him."

Sunshine in the Colorado Mountains

This is an 8x10, Oil that I completed while on vacation in the beautiful Colorado mountains. This is a scene just off our balcony at the condo we were staying. It was a bright, sunshiny morning. The birds were chirping and I could hear the sound of a mountain stream in the background. Couldn't see the stream from my vantage point, or I would have included it in the painting!  Thanks for looking.

Ephesians 6:23-24
"Peace to the brothers and sisters, and love with faith from God the father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with undying love."

La Posada Courtyard of Santa Fe

An 8x10, Oil painting I did while on vacation to Santa Fe. We stayed at a wonderful resort with many beautiful courtyards. So restful and quiet. I set up with my travel easel/paintbox and got this one done early one morning. I completed the tree trunk and branches using a palette knife. Giving it the texture I was going for. I just love the lavender colored bush...They are all over the place in Santa Fe. Have no idea what it is. It had a graceful flowing look to it.  Thanks for looking.
