Misty Morning


Misty Morning
6 x 6 inches oil on canvas panel 

Artist Note
I saw a photo of
this stunningly beautiful sunrise
shared on a friend's blog,
and asked for permission to use it
and LOVED painting it. 
Simple shapes and lovely harmony.
Thank you, dear Debbie.

I am busy painting for my 
solo show in early November.
Pressure is on because I
have to finish all the ones 
that need framing by October.

Between teaching and painting 
I have not had any time to visit,
but will get round to it tonight. 
Not complaining...just explaining!
I miss my routine of 
seeing what everyone is doing.

LilyPond - Misty Morning

6x6in oil on canvas panel  $110.

Purchase HERE

Artist Note
Last weekend I was in 
Cloudcroft, NM.
Think of the name...
Cloud... croft. Land in the clouds!
I was lucky enough to enjoy
a misty morning and it was 
truly atmospheric and beautiful. 
So different from fierce colors 
and beauty the dry air creates
here in Las Cruces.

The Lodge Resort has a 
 large lily pond and I was able
to take many photos.
The colors were cool and muted 
with very soft edges.
(The Lodge also has a ghost - can you 
imagine her coming out of the mist!!)

The DPW Challenge has
The FOG Challenge this week
so hoping that the mist will substitute
because fat chance of me seeing 
fog in this neck of the woods.
I checked - there IS a 
difference between mist and fog 
even though they are both 
created with water droplets.

Thank you for visiting.
