Plein Aire Study

    Plein Aire Study   World's End   "A Winter's Glow"    10x18  oil on board


" On a not so cold winter's morning I set out to capture the winter's first dusting.  I decided to venture  in the early afternoon light, to one of my favorite places of inspiration.
I had to work fast because I knew that I would loose the light soon.  The temperature was going down  but I was comfortable with my layers of clothing, but my nose was running
and beginning to freeze.  After 3.5 hours of painting I was rewarded with this " Winter's Glow "  10 x 18 inches.   oil on board.  with black gilded frame w/t gold liner.

Above, is the larger version created in my studio from the study.  24x36  oil on canvas.
Appearing in the March issue of Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine.
