Wow what happened to December. Not much painting took place this month especially later on. We spent a week in Sedona, AZ in early December and I painted a couple of oils from the patio at the place we were staying. Sedona is a haven for artists and there is a new
painting every direction you look. The first painting is of Coffee Pot Rock early in the morning. I guess one could call this "Morning Coffee" 5"x 7". I was very enthusiastic about this beautiful scene until I saw what it looked like in the evening. I had to repaint the same rock formation with the fading winter light. The colors were astounding. This one I'll call "Dessert and Coffee" 8" x 10". The rest of the month has been spent in Alaska with family and even though I had great intentions of doing a Christmas Card painting, I didn't quite make it happen until it was too late to get it printed. I'm adding that painting to my blog as well since it is really a winter painting. I'll try harder next year to get one finished in time to send out for Christmas. The final painting I did this December is called "Snowman" 8" x 10"and is from a collage of several photos of our children when they were young and their dog Sparky.
