Pacific Fog6" x 8"
oil on canvas board
Years ago I recorded this scene in my Moleskine sketchbook. I had a very vague memory of the colors, so I used whatever I thought would look right.
Again, my main focus was brushwork. Practicing laying the paint down and leaving it.

Ahh, "leaving it". That's the hard part - I only realize I should have stopped painting earlier when I've gone too far. This is lovely and leaves room for viewer.
Thanks, Regina!
Leaving it. That is one of the hardest things for me to do, I swear. Funny- someone referred to repeated brushstrokes in the same place as "licking." I got a great mental image from the work- cows at a salt lick. Licking, licking, licking...
Gosh... I just LOVE that brushwork... That was my comment even before reading your post...
Yeah!!!
Ahh...simplicity is elegance...
Thanks Marian!
DJ- so very true.
Love your work-
