The same little scene I have painted before, but at sunset instead of dawn. It's interesting how different the colors became. This one is a lot warmer than the others.
I wanted to give up on this painting so many times. But I fought through it, and five hours later I had this.
And tomorrow I get to participate in my first "First Friday Artwalk", here in Carpinteria. I'm very excited, and hoping more of my paintings dry by then so I can show them!
I really liked the smaller version I did of this scene (posted here). So I decided it would be worth it to paint a larger one. I think I actually like this one better than the first...and I might just be tempted to keep it for myself :)
There's a certain part of my new neighborhood that really reminds me of the Dharma houses in Lost...I thinks it's because they're all painted in pastel colors or bright yellow. I feel like I should look out for polar bears when I walk through it.
Congratulations! Thank you so much to everyone who entered. It was so nice reading everyone's comments, thanks for all your kind words! And I hope some of you new followers stick around because I'll definitely be doing other giveaways soon!
