Palm Trees in Fog - 8x10 Plein Air

I really liked this one.  It was one of those days that's really foggy but still warm because the sun is trying so hard to break through.  The beach was empty with the exception of a few surfers in the water.

Although the noise level in my current studio drives me crazy, it does offer some great views on occasion to make up for it.

Bluffs Panorama - 10x30

I'm finally making an effort to do larger paintings of all those small works I really loved.  This was definitely at the top of the list.

Temple on a Hill - Tibetan Landscape Painting, 5x7

Here's a view I definitely wouldn't come across anywhere around here! I loved the color of the bright blue sky next to the golden hued hills, and the light on the temple structures made it even better.

Temple in Tibet - 5x7

It's always a challenge to know how best to portray sunlight like this.  I'm not saying this is the best way, but I'm pretty happy with the effect.

Rice Fields of Nepal - 12x12

I was a little nervous about this one.  It's definitely a different type of landscape than I'm used to, but I'm really enjoying how it turned out.

Snow Leopard Hotel, Tibet - 6x6

When I saw this photo I knew I had to paint it.  There were so many fun elements, the bold shadows and angles, the bright colors, this was just a joy.
