Gold Sky and Firs

This is another from an
outdoor adventure to Highrock Park.
It was on a grey day in early January.
After I returned to the studio the painting's
sky looked too blah, so, the clouds parted
and the gold sky appeared.

  1. Trees, and sky.... a trademark of yours I believe. I'm always so much calmer when I gaze at your paintings Linny!

  2. Your interpretation of form and light is unique and exciting - love the old - love your idea to do old grain elevators - I don't think we have those out here, but if I find any, I'll take a photo for you - I love the painting you did w/the train and the overall colors you chose.

  7. Thank-you, Lisa! I'm happy to hear that the train/grain elevator painting works for you- as you have seen I'm usually more colorful. (And, thank-you for being on the grain elevator look out, too!)

  11. Hi Linny,

    I like how this has a classic feeling, with more of a rolling touch. So beautiful.

    Take care,

    Barbara
