Painting #1 “When Hope Reigns” 11 x 14 inches – imaginescape
I have had a wonderful few painting sessions, perhaps it has to do with the good aftermath of the art show in my little community.
I had no idea how successful it would be. I am not talking about sales but rather interest and a good turnout. I had the wonderful experience of speaking to several people about art and creativity. I did sale an unframed tree painting and a watercolor mounted onto a cradled board.
Painting #2 Untitled – 11 x 14 inches – semi-abstract of the Sierra Buttes
The painting above was a quick one exploring texture and color.
Painting #3 “Manzanita Lake ” – 11 x 14 inches
I wanted to see how minimal I could paint this. The far back edge of the treeline appears to descend but in actuality the photo makes it appear that way.
Painting #4 Bullards – 11 x 14 inches
I think that I enjoy trying to capture light on my paintings, a delight indeed!
Painting #5 “Forest of My Dreams” 11 x 14 inches – semi-abstract
My goal was to give you an essence of the woods, a visual forest bathing experience. I prefer to abstract my subjects, more exciting to me.
Painting #6 “Glory” 11 x 14 inches
Again, the light in the sky is the focus. My husband and I will be going on another motorcycle camping trip this weekend to Anderson Valley in Mendocino county. I plan on hiking in the redwoods and to go to Fort Bragg to explore.
Have a wonderful rest of the week. Thank you for stopping by and reading!
Congratulations on your sales and enjoy your trip, Margaret.

Glad to read you enjoyed showing your paintings! These are lovely, particularly Forest of My Dreams…
Have fun in the Anderson Valley. Mendocino is so pretty, and I have to say, North Coast Brewing in Fort Bragg is a favourite of mine. Hope it’s still there!
