November Rain

 
 
Cliff Cave Park
 
 
 
 
5x7 plein air oil
 
 
 
Cloudy, rainy and chilly was the weather this morning as the MOPAPA group huddled under the shelter at Cliff Cave County Park.  The misty tones of the distant trees and the muted shades of russet grasses were the elements that caught my eye.

Cliff Cave Park

 

 
 
Before the Snow
 


 
 


6x8 plein air oil
 


 
 
Painted this morning before the snow started.  It was rather bleak lighting but these trees still held some color along with the grasses.  It was cold but I was grateful that it wasn't windy.

Fall Colors

 
County Parks
 
 
A couple of small (6x8) plein air oils that I did a couple weeks ago in the area parks.  The bright orange and gold leaves didn't last very long.  One of the trees actually lost half of it's leaves during the time that I painted the picture.
