Mountain to Sea Trail painting



This scene was so beautiful that I had to paint it. It is hard to do as a watercolor because the light green field in the mid-ground. But what the heck, I tried it anyway! The filed was full of a grass with a purple or lavender bloom. This is along the Mountain to Sea Trail where it runs along the Blue Ridge Parkway. A double whammy of greatness.

Foggy Landscape - New paintings!



I went hiking on the Mountain to Sea Trail as it goes along the Blue Ridge Parkway and came across this beautiful field. The layers in the painting above came out really well. The front logs on the forest floor have a great mood!
