Sky Interrupted

Here's one that I kept putting off. What I liked about it was the way that the buildings carved into the negative space of the sky. What put me off was all that perspective. I guess it just found me in a good mood.

Goodnight, Seattle

This is a painting of the Seattle skyline at night from our hotel window with the curtains drawn. This also seemed a good way to close out this series, at least for now. I have many more paintings planned of this beautiful city, but for now, goodnight.

Cemetery at Dusk

2014, Oil on Hardboard, 7"x 5"
#156


First painting of the New Year! I know, but I've been sick. This is a painting of Mont Alto Cemetery which is about three miles from my studio. Every now and then, on my way to and from the Post Office or the bank or Frank's Pizza, I stop here to take pictures. The pizza gets cold but it's worth it.
