Rose Garden, Mt Vernon Gardens in Omaha

I have been painting. Just not as often as I would like. My mom and I have both had a bunch of dr appts lately, cutting my painting time short the past few weeks. I've been getting in the studio consistently, though, even for just a short time.
This piece was done in August of 08 when I still lived in the Omaha area. It was done en plein air, at Mt Vernon Gardens. I love that place. I ran out of time that day and didn't get around to finishing it until last week. I had fun with glazing medium again, rubbing it in with my fingers and brightening the painting up with brighter, deeper colors.

Alaska Woods in October

I painted this one "en plein air" while in Alaska in October. This was the scene in the back yard of the people's home that we stayed at-John and Linda Luberger in Wasilla. I had to quit before I was finished and never got back to it until yesterday in my studio. I added some color to brighten it up a bit to make it more like i remember the scene. I love the lighting in Alaska that time of year. The sun is so low in the sky through out the day, so it looks like morning all day long=my favorite lighting for painting. I was so inspired to paint while there, but only got around to painting one afternoon. If I ever get to go back, I will definitely make a point to spend more time outside with my paints!
