This is a photograph of a coastal scene from the point of view on top of the hillside. In the photo you can also see a sketchbook that's painted the same scene. The painting is a watercolour that has been done loosely. The majority of the painting is the sky.

—this morning I had breakfast with a view. I undoubtedly should have been grading but was thinking that I needed to #sketch this gorgeous sugar maple before the rain returns this weekend and it drops its leaves. It was a great way to start the day!

Thinking snowy thoughts today.

Painting 12x24, vertical. A snowy suburban front yard at sunset. Sky is orange, pink and yellow with a band of purple cloud. Three houses across the street with snow on the rooves and in the yards. Front yard is purple snow with shadows and patches catching the sunlight. Two umbrella trees and a fire hydrant in the yard.
