        Still waiting for fall colors to reach their peak in central NC, so I had to settle for this lone sycamore tree highlighted by the morning sun on the shores of Falls Lake in Raleigh. Painted in oils on an 8×10 panel.

                        This really is lovely! it has such a life like quality about it. I feel as if I am there gazing at the beautiful light on the water.

                                Thanks for the kind remarks. I dreaded painting the water in this scene, but it ended being my favorite part of the finished piece.

                                    Love the shifting focus and the light effects on the water. I really like the water. Good job with the trees too. Nice work.

                                            Ah, I love sycamores! Definitely a tree for artists. While their fall color is often mediocre, their gnarled, looming shapes and stunning bark more than make up for it. This is a great spotlight painting on that little tree. Lovely light that sends a clear message about the coming autumn.

                                            Still much to paint and much to learn!
