Scattered Rugs

Posted in daily painter, Plein Air, Travel, tagged , , , , , , , , , on October 28, 2012| 3 Comments »

I grew up in Southeast Georgia.  It’s really low and flat there and our falls never had colors like we see here in Virginia.  My mother loved the colors so we always traveled to the “mountains” in the fall to enjoy the season.  We usually went to the Great Smokey Mountains.  The colors there are a lot like here. 

Several years ago Allen and I took his 90-year-old aunt, Honnie,  over to West Virginia to visit her other nephew at his mountain house.  This is the view from their deck.  Honnie called this painting “Scattered Rugs” (oil on canvas, 18″x24″).  And she wrote a poem about it.  I’ve searched everywhere for where I put the poem and when I find it I’ll post it here for you all to see.

Weekend of Painting

Posted in daily painter, tagged , , , , , , , on October 19, 2010| Leave a Comment »

As I mentioned yesterday, I had a friend and fellow painter come out to the cabin this weekend to enjoy the landscape and paint.  Susan has been painting for a year or so now and is doing a great job.  This was her first foray into “plein air” painting. 

Here is the painting that I worked on that day and the progression of the work… 

And here it is about 95% finished.  I’ll do a little more work on it in the studio and it will be ready for sale.  This “Fall View” is an oil on 11″x14″ canvas and will be available for $225 by contacting kwalker@doubledogdesigns.com .

Tomorrow I’ll share more with you about what Jed and Lincoln did while we painted.  🙂

Shenandoah Fall

Posted in daily painter, tagged , , , , , , , , , , on December 14, 2009| Leave a Comment »

This is the beginning of the painting, Shenandoah Fall.  I was reminded recently by a couple of blog readers that  you like to see the progress of a painting.  I forget to take photos because I get caught up in what I am doing when I paint.  I’ll try to remember to stop and take some photos so that I can post the progression in the future.

The palette I worked with looked like this.  I often use palette paper which makes for a much easier clean-up when I finish work.  I generally use about 6 or 7 colors when I paint and blend them together to get the tones I need.

And this is the complete painting, Shenandoah Fall I, which measures 6″x8″ and is framed and available at Delilah’s for $145.  There is a companion piece that I did at the same time that I will post soon.

Fall Splendor IFall Splendor I is an oil on canvas panel measuring 8×10.  You can see it at Delilah’s on Main Street in Front Royal, Virginia.  It is available for $225 framed. 

Today I am taking about 30 paintings over to Philip Carter Winery in Hume to hang for a show for which they have invited me.  I am excited because it is a beautiful facility.  You may recall that I painted out there a couple of days this summer. 

As soon as the show is up and we decide what day to hold the opening reception you will all be invited to come.
