Mountain Wildflower Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 6x8" Oil Painting

Another little painting from the Smoky Mountains.

Purchase here
 It was a beautiful day, and not long after this hike, we had a picnic.  Yummy sandwiches on home made bread, fresh fruit, delicious apple cake from the orchard, and a beautiful view.  Life at it's best!




Thanks for visiting my blog today.

Asheville Mountain Sunset Original Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting

 We lived in Asheville for a few years, and I never tired of the changing landscapes.  Of course they are famous for autumn trees, but day by day and hour by hour, the view of mountains change.



I painted with a palette knife and tried to keep it uncluttered and maybe just a touch abstract.

Big Sky Palette Knife Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 6x8" Oil on panel

I have been working, working, working, on my Etsy site, turning me into a computer operator!  Day after day, sitting at the computer for hours at a time.

Purchase here

Finally, I just couldn't take it anymore.  I had to get back into the studio!
I had so much fun with this piece!  It seems like forever, since I had a palette knife in my hand.



Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed painting it, and thanks for stopping bye today.


Have a great day!

Mountain Landscape Painting, Misty Mountain Morning, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x12" Oil Landscape

Mornings in Carolina are so special.

purchase here

One of my favorite ways to start the day, is sipping my coffee on the deck, while the morning mist burns off.  It is so peaceful....as if I am alone in the world.  Sounds are muted and I feel protected.

 The Cherokee named it Nantahala, which means "land of the mid day sun".

Enjoy your day!

Small Landscape Painting, Blue Ridge Mountains, Wildflower Painting, Daily Painter, Small Oil Painting

Last fall, we took a ride on the Blue Ridge Parkway.  It was a crisp, sunny day and my camera was busy clicking away.

Purchase a Giclee Print here



It's hard to go wrong with a blue and yellow painting.....it just shouts "Cheerful".  The background was painted  with a brush, but I used a palette knife on the flowers and grasses.  That's when it started to be really fun!



I feel like I was able to capture the feel of the day......I hope it made you smile!

"Ridge Line" 6x12" Palette Knife Painting SOLD


It is hard to beat the beauty of the mountains, especially when the sun is setting.

We were enjoying dinner at a friend's house when the sun put on this wonderful display.  The watercolor sky was impossible to ignore and the trees on the ridge appeared on fire as the sun dropped behind the mountain.

Sunsets are truly one of life's jewels.  Enjoy!
