Small daily oil paintings, painted in a plein air impressionistic style on stretched canvas or canvas board created and posted regularly. 2012 update: After 6 years, the postings now include larger paintings along with the small works. My goal is to reach 1,000 paintings posted by the end of this year. 2013 update: The original goal was met and exceeded, from now on I will post paintings that are successful or might be of interest.

"Desert Trail" ©
The daily colors of the desert are soft to the eye, unlike the coastline that blasts vibrant blazes of blue. And yet the desert is just as able to hypnotize the viewer with it's enchanting subtle pastels. Late in the day the desert floor and encircling mountains put on a brilliant show of color, for a brief moment. That moment is what I was attempting to capture in "Desert Trail".
