It's no secret that my favorite season of the year is autumn, when trees seem to be huge flowers that bloom in radiant colors.
Autumn Splendor is the latest painting that shows my idea of what fall looks like (which it doesn't in the desert where I live!). Complete with some mallards, my favorite species of duckies.
The location is imaginary -- but it's a place I'd love to see. Enjoy!!

Autumn Glory is my newest painting. This is one of the peaks in the Elk Range in Colorado -- near Aspen, and the same mountain range that includes the fabled Maroon Bells. I think this mountain is Pyramid Peak, although I'm not sure about that. The size is 11" x 14" / 28cm x 36cm. I may do a reshoot of the painting, since this one didn't come out that great.
I had considered adding some wildlife to the scene -- some mallard ducks or maybe some deer (I DID see a buck and doe together when I was there), but then I decided -- naaahhh. I didn't feel like it!
Enjoy!

Well, what th...
I finished a painting a couple of weeks ago, and I haven't written about it yet!! Until now!
Duck Pond (note the two duckies!) is a scene featuring Mount Sneffels in Colorado. It measures 18" x 24" / 45.7cm x 61cm. The mountains are close to what they actually look like; the foreground is a mix of reality and imagination.
The autumn colors tell us this must be mid-late September. The Colorado high country is spectacular at that time, and I miss seeing it.
Enjoy!!
