I did this about a week ago but didn't have time to post until now. Normally I scan, but this one is larger and I had to photograph. I plan on doing more trees. We have some really neat " wild trees" in this valley.

Oregon Hay, 12x9
So many things to see from the car while driving home from the coast. I couldn't help but try my hand at hay bales. I've always loved the colors and shadows.
Marsh Fields #2, 10x8This one I painted right after "Marsh Fields #1". I thought I would try a vertical and try different colors. I also wanted a bigger version. I really like these fall tones mixed with the water. They seem to just roll off the brush...
Marsh Fields #1, 5x7 This is another one from a photo taken from the car. Only a very small cropped portion of the frame was used. Something just appealed to me here.
Rice Fields, 9x12 This was painted from a photo taken while we were driving ( a common practice).So a lot was left to the imagination, as it was a very blury picture.
