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.

"A Serene Moment" ©
Today's small painting has become the basis for a larger work that is now up on the easel. The long diagonal of the distant mountain seems to work in the small format but I have changed the composition a bit to accommodate "getting large", varing the shapes. The idea of standing in the shade, looking onto the sunlit valley is the main focus, hopefully I won't lose that.
