Often I take sketches and notes from just outside our home. A lot of seasonal changes occur right under my nose, and I find that they occur so often, I could paint them forever and not run out of subjects. This particular scene, is the result of a moody weather front that moved in from the mountains, and contrasted nicely with the autumn maples and aspens. I love when that happens. Moody weather has a personality all of its own, and I try to catch it upon the canvas.

It's been a very busy summer, and now its fall. The time has flown by, and I never seem to be able to keep up with it all, .. like don't forget to keep in touch with everyone, in not only my blog, but my tweets on Twitter, and my facebook pages. Hopefully, I can and I will.

I have been painting, a lot, and there is a lot to be said about what I am doing. I'm overdue on posting my new works, and hope to catch up.

That said, I'm now heading back to the easel to work on a painting from a sketch that I did recently outside in the invigorating autumn air.

More on this later. I will attempt to make a more regular visit to my site with my newer works and thoughts. Until later. I will be back.
