Jade Green River II oil 8" x 10" sold

I've been attracted to the Oregon rivers here in the local mountain regions.
The overcast skies actually heighten the color of the water.
Right now I'm working on a painting of some Aspen trees by the river at Brightenbush. Never have painted Aspens before and it is a challenge. Will be posting the finished work if it works out well.

A good thing to remember; creativity begins with simple ideas. I find that simplification of the painting process lends itself to a more pleasurable experience and usually a better product.
