9x12" Oil on Linen.
"I wandered around for this one. There are some old homesteads east of the Rockies, and I happened down a lonely little traveled road north east of Colorado Springs. An old for sale sign off the main road gave me a license to take a stroll. After all if anyone said anything I could always explain I'm just 'looking'.
Sure enough this old barn was completely hidden from passerby. Nestled in a shallow valley, I set up shop and enjoyed a perfectly quiet and peaceful plein air painting. I hope you Enjoy!

"Muddy Waters" is a small oil painting, 5.5x9". This was a new stream after historic rains this last July in Colorado. Interesting contrast last summer with wildfires and flooding!
I found this after parking the truck and hiking a little ways in Garden of the gods, Colorado Springs.
All my years here I have never seen so much water.
Been really enjoying oil painting again after going with natural oil instead of solvents.
