Painted meditations for Holy Week 2025.
I love how well this subject expresses the spirit of early spring. This is my second start, after realizing I prefer this angle of it, and the first try is posted for comparison: "Path out of Winter" 24 x 36 oil painting - in progress.
Here is a new piece that I've just gotten underway. It took a while to figure the "where and when" of it out, and so far so good: "Song of Spring" 18 x 30 oil painting - in progress.
This is the same view as my "Autumn Rush" painting, and it was such a happy surprise to find the same love of it, while also enjoying the subtle and obvious differences it has with fall: "Spring Rush" 20 x 34 oil painting - in progress.
A spot of evening drama with the weather was the inspiration for this piece, which is of a local cornfield that has caught my eye: "Steeple and First Flurries" 7 x 12 oil painting.
A holiday visit and drive inspired this gaze into the distance: "Across the Valley and Far Away" 5 x 9 oil painting.
This plein air painting took several September/Octobers to complete, and in that time my fondness for it only grew, getting to watch the peaceful change from one season to another, and how it holds a little of both for quite some time: "Summer's Ending Sparkles" 26 x 40 oil painting.
