Painting #1 remembered landscape of Bullards Bar Reservoir
I am busy painting as usual but also tackling outdoor clean-up. I have been enjoying some breakthroughs and a few setbacks. I still battle with my perfectionism. I am finding that it really helps if I take the rest of the day off to go hike or work outside.
Painting #2 imagined landscape
Take for instance this painting, I wasn’t at all happy with it on the onset. I have found that putting a painting away for a while truly helps.
Painting #3 semi-abstract of the North Yuba
Painting #4
I started this painting last year and I brought it out to finish it.
Painting #5 Imaginary landscape
This one was painted several months ago and I was ready to crop it but then I decided to paint a waterfall. Now I like it! I used a transparent white paint which works quite well.
I have more paintings to share but perhaps another time. I have been neglecting my WordPress blog, hopefully I will do better this summer. Keep painting and enjoy spring everyone!
Nice to see these☺

Dear Margaret,
I could not take away a painting and then continue working on it at some point!
If I’m not satisfied with my work, then it will not leave me in peace and I’ll work to complete exhaustion!
Your waterfall is very successful and I like it very much! 😍👏👏👏👏👌👍
