Glow on the Water

Glow on the Water
Oil on panel - 6x6

This one is a loose adaptation of the creek that runs through Dogwood Canyon in southern Missouri.  I may enter this is the Randy Higbee competition - the deadline is coming up quickly!  I have been painting only small ones this week - so that I will have a good variety to choose from.  I love painting by the water - even on these crisp November days.    This was scaled down from a larger one painted during the Big Cedar Paint-Out - and using my artistic license, I omitted a distant bridge. This happened to be one of those days I was bundled up like an eskimo - thank goodness I brought my ski jacket!  I will be packing hand warmers on the next cold plein air day :)
