Mountains

Quaint Little House

At the plantations in Virginia, we viewed this charming little house.  It was one of the outbuildings, and may be more modern than the imposing brick structures.  Here is the photo:

You can see that I changed the roof angle and showed more of the house.  I need to highlight the trees and brighten the sky.  My goal of learning to paint architecture is progressing.  It's much simpler to splash on leaves for trees and flowers.

Fall foliage

Fall Paintings for decor

I've put all my fall paintings in one place. Growing up in Pennsylvania, I lived for the fall.  Football, the beginning of school, my birthday...long walks in the woods.  I miss all that color.  So I paint them as much as possible.
