Summer Aspen
Summer Aspen
Oil / Canvas
40" x 30"
A recent painting of an aspen tree I've always liked. My goal for this was to have thin paint in the background and really thick and dense impasto paint on the tree and foreground in order to create depth.
Detail pics below to see paint thickness and texture:
It's fun to find little abstract designs when you take detail pics.
Here's a side view to see the paint dimensionSunday, July 3, 2011

Mt. Princeton Vista
Mt. Princeton Vista
Oil 8" x 10"
Plein Air from today. This is a view of Mt. Princeton above the valley I live in. It's challenging to drop in shadows from clouds while painting outdoors. They are always moving so it can be tricky to make observations of how they work. I had to conserve my white paint because I forgot to bring it, luckily I made it without using it all. The wind got really chilly towards the end of the painting, started to have shivering hands while painting (maybe the shakiness can be seen in the brushstrokes)
