Some practice pieces. I don't like these enough to make larger paintings. These are 8" X 10" on canvas board. Water Mixable oils. Top is a view of Payette Lake in McCall, Idaho as seen from the camp we were in. We stayed in a lodge, we are not real campers.
These are the ewes resting on a cliff in Alberta, Canada. They looked like goats to me, but I researched and these are the females of the mountain sheep. They look quite different than the males.
In cleaning up one day I found a 12" X 24" board. I didn't remember buying it, but gessoed it and decided it was worth a panorama. This one is Red Rock Canyon in Nevada. I had painted a smaller version of it years ago. I liked the colors. I did this one with a combination of palette knife and brushes.
I am very disturbed with all the hatred going on in the world and have not been doing much painting. I go to Sabbath services each week and wonder if someone is going to come in to hurt us. I don't understand the hatred. If a person is unhappy with his or her circumstances, why don't they try to change them, not go out killing other people. So I'll finish with something positive for my readers to think about.
