Nearer To Thee- Landscape

Close ups

Oil on 5x7 hardboard.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. The hostess, Jean, provided the photos.

I was really tempted to try a great looking cat (jaguar, I think), but I was still seeing spots from last week's cheetah.

This is Mount Rundle in Alberta, Canada. Gorgeous scenes like this remind me of the constant presence of our Creator. The mountains seem to be in symbolic prayer to the Heavens.

This is my submission to WDE at Wet Canvas. The image was supplied by Mary. Thanks Mary!
The original photo was fairly dark and largely monochrome blue. I kicked up the color and add some morning light. I'm pretty happy with the result. Hope y'all like it! :)

I see so much amazing art on the net that every once in a while I give myself the challenge to try something in their style. This is the case for this painting. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the fantastic artist, Robert Genn. I tried to emulate his way of interpreting a landscape and insert decorative color.

The red highlights on the scene reminded me of Christmas lights.

I tried this scene with an analogous color scheme.....a very limited palette. This was a reference photo for the WDE on Wet Canvas and was supplied by Carolyn.
