Belgium off the Eurostar


Last one. This was based on a view of the Belgium countryside from the train from Brussels to London (the 2nd part of my Berlin trip.) It's the smallest one of the four, measuring 20" x 24". Again, click for larger view.

Okay – now back to the figure I think...

Big Sur


3rd one up. This one, as a choice for subject matter, is an unusual one for me. Generally I would try and avoid a beach/ocean scene, but thought I would push some paint around with it and see what I came up with. Measures 24" x 36".

NC Stand


Here is the second landscape. It measures 28 x 30 inches and again is painted in oil on linen. Both this one and the previous post are North Carolina scenes around New Bern (where my parents live.) Click on image for larger view.

NC Pond


Finished up (at least I think) the first of the four landscapes I've slowly been working on. Actually all are finished, I just need to shoot or scan the others. This one measures 24 x 30 inches, and is oil on linen. This is my favorite so that's why it's going up first. Click on it for a larger view. The others will follow soon!

Two More Landscapes



Thought I would go ahead and post a couple of other new landscape starts. I haven't made much progress on the previous two – a couple of passes but not enough change to merit posting yet. Soon though!

Landscapes


At the start of the new year here, while I'm getting sorted out in my head exactly what I want to get up and running on, I thought I would paint a few landscapes to keep my hand active. So, here are two starts, very early on – about the 2nd pass. They're on the studio floor here because I just laid on some heavy glaze in a few areas. I'll be sure to post them again, at least when they're finished. I often do some landscapes after a larger body of work (in this case, having recently wrapped up solo exhibitions in LA and Berlin) and need a break from the taxing efforts of working with the figure.
