Two Recliners

From my sketchbook while visiting my mom and dad in Mississippi....

This is a sketch of where my parents sit. They're usually watching Fox news. 

Georgia Pine in Snellville

Georgia Pine in Snellville, GA (plein air)

9x12 oil on canvas

Here I'm using the limited palette of Cobalt Blue Light, Windsor Lemon, Permanent Red Medium and Titanium White. I have found that my paintings are more unified by using only 3 primaries.

Oil on Canvas

Here's my painting from today's plein air outing with AAC. A lot of the trees are just now starting to get their leaves so there were quite a few different color greens. The park is getting ready for their annual plein air event happening at the end of April. Details here: http://www.olmstedpleinair.com

Psalm 133

A song of ascents. Of David.

1 How good and pleasant it is

when God’s people live together in unity!

2 It is like precious oil poured on the head,

running down on the beard,

running down on Aaron’s beard,

down on the collar of his robe.

3 It is as if the dew of Hermon

were falling on Mount Zion.

For there the Lord bestows his blessing,

even life forevermore.
