This is sort of my view from my kitchen window. I say sort of because I do see Castlerock and Tablerock from my house, but from a different angle. I went out and painted the early morning shadows on the hills. If it’s sunny, I’ll give it another try in the morning. The skyContinue reading “Castlerock and Tablerock”

The leaves are coming down. It was a cold, grey, drizzly day in Boise. But still pretty. I painted this one at Marianne Williams Park. I’m enjoying Plein air painting. 8X8″ oil on panel

Today I drove up the hill to my friends house to paint Tablerock which was burned in a huge fire just before the 4th of July. An illegal firework started it. For a long time the hill was completely black. Yesterday I went running up there and noticed how much grass is growing back.Continue reading “Tablerock Plein Air”
