Painting a week

"Streamside" oil on panel, 11x14, $425

I headed off to one of my favorite parks intending to paint the oak trees, and ended up perched on a rock painting the creek. It's amazing how quickly the light can change on a few rocks. I intended to focus on the wonderful shadows of leaves playing over the surface of the rocks, but by the time I sat down and started painting, those shadows were already gone.
