Acrylic on canvas, 18 x 24. Click on image to enlarge.
I apologize for the tardy post. My treatments have made weekly posts impossible. Also I only have a few paintings left to show. I have not done any work since probably January. The treatments were too brutal for me to even consider doing more paintings. Feeling a little better now.
Anyway...I did this landscape entirely from imagination. This was really just to practice (again) landscape techniques. Because it's all just made up, a work like this can be done relatively quickly. That is one of the best advantages of doing nature paintings; it doesn't matter if a tree is a little too far to the left, or a cloud is a little too far to the right. I just put things wherever they look good. Contrast this to doing someone's portrait; if you put their nose a little too far to the left, it will definitely get noticed!
So it's just random nature elements. Compared to a lot of my other work, I am relatively satisfied with this. Of course, this is not a work that you will contemplate for hours, it's just something done for fun.
