#1101 BrownPink Clouds

6"x6" | oil on archival panel

​I asked my Tuesday Class what they wanted to talk/learn/experiment with today - they said - CLOUDS!
The Gamblin Brown Pink color makes the nicest clouds! It is just neutral enough and colorful enough.
Clouds are just one of my favorite subjects!!! All my life I have loved clouds. This was my demo effort for the class today, (and they came up with some beautiful cloud/landscape paintings too!)
So... I asked my class what they wanted the focus to be next week and they said CLOUDS! So, anyone who wants to come to my class, for the rest of the Winter we may be working and studying clouds!

​Painted "en plein air" during the 2017 Plein Air Event at Maryhill Museum. It is a little larger than my usual daily paintings, 8"x8". I'm starting the bidding at $100 just like my little 6"x6" paintings.
This is the first time it has been displayed to the public. I didn't enter this painting into the Plein Air Event in August.
I'm not sure what kind of tree this is... maybe a Locust Tree, they are very common in the Oregon and Washington desert. They have an incredibly rough bark.
