"Golden Dusk"

This was done in my studio from a photo I took at the end of a beautiful summer day. The light filtered through the trees and created these wonderful golden colors. I punched up the color a bit for a more dramatic effect.

I've been here before and saw a deer running through this very field only to pause for just a moment to check me out in my car. I tried getting my camera out but only got it's hind legs disappearing into the woods. If I can find the picture, I'll post it.

Well! I found two pics of the deer in this field. I guess I got more than legs. Here they are:

"Yellow And Black"

I took a picture of these flowers amongst tall grasses out in Hollis, NH recently. I played around with the exposure on my computer and came up with what I think is an interesting composition. Then I painted my version of it here. I like the flashes of green, red and blue I put in to give the piece movement.

I've been trying out still lifes recently so you'll be seeing those here as well as landscapes.
