Mountain stream


Found this picture and decided to give it a go. I love the mountains and especially streams like this one.

Large landscape for my fireplace
















My wife encouraged me to paint a large colorful oil to go over our fireplace in the new house. I have not done a large painting in a long time but this one was a real joy to paint. My sister-in-law liked it so much that she got one for Christmas this year (bottom). This is a reproduction of a painting I saw in a book by Bob Rohm. I have been using a three color palette lately and it really keeps my colors clean. This scene reminds me of several trips that my family has taken out west.
