This painting is a "break through" piece. I always have some idea of how the finished painting will look before beginning, even working in plein air. And almost always the painting takes a few turns that I didn't expect, which is disappointing, even if the painting is successful on it's own. Finally it all came together, I guess I am catching on to this business of painting and it feels great. What you are seeing is exactly what I envisioned, whew. You can't see the whole painting because of the format, 20" X 24", so there is a bit more sky. After I finished I went out back to work on a stone and most of you knows what that means. Oh, yes!
Oil on Linen, 20" X 24"

Wow that great! I wish i could have stuff like that come out of my head on to paper.
Hi Mike, whoa I need to make it clear that the view is real, Eaton Canyon, California. I didn't make it up at all. It's the painting of the view that was in my head. Glad you like the piece. Thanks for looking....
This is a gorgeous painting.Is this the other piece you entered into the CAC? A vision realized ...how satisfying.
HI Sharon, no I just finished this painting the day I blogged it. Thanks for the thumbs up on it, I really value your input. I enjoyed seeing your "Red Door" in person at the CAC show, another fine painting.
