The Mountains are calling…

… And I must go

I came across the above quote from John Muir (author and naturalist ), spent all morning looking at pictures of hillsides I wanted to disappear into, and somewhere along the way, produced this:

I trust you know where to find the comments section. 😉

Flamingo?

I don’t know; it reminds me of a flamingo.

The idea was: I’ve done paintings that predominantly feature the primary colors, blue and yellow (also green, but that’s secondary–pun!). So of course, I wanted to finish the collection with something ‘red’ and I have this to show for my efforts..

Onion?

By far, the oddest thing I have ever painted, I think. 🙂

Flower Soup

No I don’t know what I was thinking.
