THETAWAVES :: Painting Daily
My daily paintings...I was raised in Western Pennsylvania, but my family moved to California in 1963. So my sense of landscape crosses the continent. Palm trees against the sunset is a typical California subject. I have done many of these through the years, and never tire of them. From them, I learned much about painting skies. This one is 6" x 8".

People have been asking to see more of my daily paintings...Sometimes I do two or three of the same subject at one sitting. When I have the right colors mixed, and extra paint in my brush, there is no sense rinsing it all out. This way I get more practice, and more familiarity with the subject. I have two of these lonesome pines. They are only 4" x 6".

My daily paintings...explore a variety of subjects and scenes. Hills and mountains, sunsets and beaches, clouds and trees and rocks and more trees... There are so many wonderful subjects, it's hard to choose my favorite.
This little landscape is 6" x 6".

I usually do three of the same subject at one sitting. When I have the right colors mixed, and extra paint in my brush, there is no sense rinsing it all out and throwing it away. This way I get more practice, and more familiarity with the subject.
These mountains are all 8" x 10". They will eventually be backgrounds for pine trees.
