Western View from Pinnacle Moutain, Pulaski County

Western View from Pinnacle Mountain
11X14, Oil on Canvas
SOLD
 
 
This is an old painting whose foreground I had trouble reconciling.  I had tried both cooler and warmer colors but neither looked quite right.  After one last go at it, I finally was happy enough.

Sleepy Hollow, Pulaski County

Sleepy Hollow
8X10, Oil on Panel
SOLD
 
 
 
A few weeks ago, I went out plein air painting with friend and fellow Arkansas League of Artists board member Sean Lecrone.  We went driving out Highway 10 west of Little Rock past Lake Maumelle.  I had been out that way a week earlier and had noticed a lot of potential sites that I wanted to get a better look at.  There are barns, streams, boats and all sorts of subject matter.  We settled on a little boat launch area of Lake Maumelle called Sleepy Hollow and this painting was the end result.
