Canyonlands Twilight - block-in start
So I did not get far on this block-in of a Sunset Twilight scene from Canyonlands National Park, near Moab, Utah. I will finish up the block-in tomorrow and then I will get the values and details started.

Ponderosa Pine - Update
I worked on adding detail and depth to the foreground, branches, and the trunks. I am not really totally happy with this study, but I will stop for tonight and I will mess with it again latter.

Outer Banks Aerial View - Block-in
I worked on blocking in this aerial view of an inlet near Ocracoke Island in the North Carolina Outer Banks area. The Atlantic is to the left of this painting and the Inter-Coastal Waterway is to the right. I will need to develop the layers of color to give this the proper atmospheric perspective to make this seem three dimensional.

Douglas Fir Winter Sun - Block-in
This is the start of an oil painting of a Douglas Fir. These are mature and very tall evergreen trees in the Rocky Mountains. They are majestic and thick, which I observed can block out the winter sun and create an interesting back lighting effect.

IceBox Lock & Latch - the block-in
I started this painting of an antique IceBox's Lock & Latch. The latch has very detailed metal work and it is going to be tricky to get it all in and believable.

Oldie but Goodie
I did this practice piece a few years back. Not an original design but I loved the design and look. Since I just returned from a trip I don't have anything teed up for posting. I should be able to set something new for tomorrow.
