McKinley Panorama, 5" x 7" Oil on Canvas
I wanted to get this posted this evening, and I appologize for the quality, there's alot of reflection in the paint because I had to photograph it and it's still wet. I will repost it when it's dry and can be scanned. I have been painting vegetables and fruits; still life's to try to get up to speed, but I have to admit, I'm a little burned out on food right now, and I have decided if my heart isn't in it, there's no magic, and no reason to paint. Actually, I think the decision came, when I felt like I was having a crisis on the bok choy, which I may finish someday, but not today. I have been working for about 3 months, trying to crank out a picture a day, and I guess something just snapped. I wondered if this is what happened to Duane when he painted a bug, or maybe I'm wrong and he just wanted to paint it. Either way, he can make anything look good, even a bug! This is a picture of my beautiful daughter-in-law who is an artist in her own right with a camera. This is from a picture that was taken by my son. They live in Washington state, where the views are gorgeous.
