Behind the visitor center at the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge in Washington State. Not sure I’m done with it, but it’s close.
18 X 24 inches. The current administration is bent on destroying places like this. If you would like to prevent that, you know what to do on election day.
A painting is never really done as long as I can get my hands on it.
October 11, 2018 at 10:12 am #710119Beautiful place, why would anyone want to destroy it?
C&C always welcome. Michelle

Every painting is a new adventure.October 11, 2018 at 10:30 am #710136Nicely done.
You can bet I’ll be hitting the polls on election day. RESIST!
October 11, 2018 at 10:39 am #710124Hey, Michelle. Thank you for taking a moment to comment.
Greed. Some of our national parks contain significant mineral and energy deposits. Our national forests contain billions of board feet of prime timber. Local farmers encroach on taxpayer-owned land for grazing and crops.
Things got so bad that ten of twelve members of the National Parks Advisory Board resigned together.
Normal Z out with the lot of them.

October 11, 2018 at 3:26 pm #710125Thomas, art is political. Why do you think totalitarian societies control it so tightly?
Gayle, thank you and I will do my best to get there.

October 11, 2018 at 4:08 pm #710121I don’t see art as political where I live…thanks for the warning. I didn’t know who you were: now I do. Nice painting but it leans a bit to the left.
October 11, 2018 at 5:40 pm #710116Looks like a lovely place to be ….. I like the water and sense of depth and distance too.
Nice work Cliff.
Cheers, Maureen

I don’t think it’s enough to reach any conclusions, though.
Maureen, thank you.

Okay, fair enough. My bad and I apologize. Thank you for the kind comment.
If I recall correctly, you expressed an interest in knife work on another thread. This is all knife work except I used a brush for the final layer of the sky reflected in the water. I couldn’t quite make the surface come together with the knife.

October 12, 2018 at 12:59 am #710123Cliff this is really beautiful. One of your best, I think. A very successful composition and lots of texture in those greens.
