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.

"Mt. Pinos Meadow" ©
Today a small band of plein air painters were given the gift of a new location to explore and capture on canvas. An email started it all, announcing a meadow of wild Irises in bloom, thank you Susan! Amazingly, only an hour from the Santa Clarita Valley at 8300 ft. the air was cool, birds were singing and everywhere you looked was a painting. A perfect painting day!
Oil on linen, 8" X 10"

If you look closely you can see Marian Fortunati on the path, while she was deciding where to paint.

So glad to have shared this unbelievably wonderful day with you Laura.
It really is "The Center of the World".
Enjoyed seeing Lorelle again and meeting Ernie.
I can't wait to go back and was glad to share such a perfect day with you, Diane, Lorelle, Ernie and Susan.
