Mt. Bonnell Triptych

Oil on canvas - Three 20"x20" works

Painted gallery-wrapped edges

NFS

I painted this about 2.5 years ago and never posted it. After getting a new headboard, I needed new artwork. So, I painted the view as if we had a window over the bed and no house next door. :-) Living near Lake Austin has it's perks as you can see it out the adjacent window. This image depicts the morning view with the light not quite yet over the trees as they are still in shadow. And I removed buildings to keep it pastoral. The white trim indicates a window frame. Not sure that reads as such but still makes a nice border. Could be a frame. Anyway, I love it and it really makes the room.

I painted this little guy this morning and am posting tonight! Yay! Hope to make a habit of that. Seeking that balance between painting larger works and these small daily paintings. Any tips?

I am so excited to have two paintings accepted in this year's AVAA 12BUY12 Holiday Show at Austin Art Space. This painting and Tropical Pool will be exhibited Dec. 7 - Jan. 12. The reception for the event is Dec. 8. This event is a holiday must and so fun to get the season rolling.
