Haven't had much time to paint this year and now am finally get it back to it. Here's a new one. Vistas - 16x20 Acrylic.

An abstract painting featuring vibrant colors with mixed green, blue, and purple hues. The composition suggests a landscape, with bold brush strokes creating depth and texture across mountains and water.

Day 22 of #ArtAdventCalendar Evening Enters. 40x40 Acrylic Painted in 2024. #AbstractArt #painting

The top portion of the canvas is dominated by deep blue tones with areas of dark brown and black swirling across it, resembling a sky or atmosphere. The center of the image includes patches of lighter blue, green, and white, creating a sense of movement or flow that suggests water or ice. The brown area continues along the right side of the painting, contrasting against a darker blue section on the lower half.

Day 20 of #ArtAdventCalendar 48x30 Acrylic Painted in 2022. #AbstractArt #landscape #painting. I didn't name this one which always seems tricky to me.

The image is an abstract painting of a mountainous landscape. The composition features a wide range of colors, including blues, greens, browns, and oranges. In the foreground, vibrant green fields are interspersed with winding brown paths and deep blue water bodies. The middle ground showcases abstract depictions of mountains, incorporating shades of blue, teal, and purple. The background is a soft, muted blend of pastel colors—light pinks and lavenders.

A painting of roses from my garden. I think I’m as proud of growing them, as I am of painting them.

For Day 20 of #ArtAdventCalendar I’m sharing this painting I did of a sunset in Riondel. I’ve spent a lot of summer evenings here and never get tired of it.
