6-30-09 Rocky Mountain Estes Park

Rocky Mountain Estes Park #630
Oil on linen on quarter inch Baltic Birch ply
Size 7x9 inches
Cost $75
Shipping $11
Yesterday, three of my plein air friends (Yvette, Steve and Dave) went up to Rocky Mountain National Park Colorado. We all live in Loveland so it's only about a 45 minute drive to the park. We have had such a wet June and the last couple of day it seem to have been drying out. The painting conditions were superb and we had a wonderful time. I completed two paintings and the second is coming up tomorrow. The painting will take seven to ten day to dry from this date.

Here in the States there seems to be all kinds of restrictions to having street vendors. As a kid I loved just setting up a corner cool-aid stand and open for business. In Mexico and in most South American countries the street vendors are accepted ways of life. In fact most of the locals trust the street vendors more than the local hard wall markets for the freshest vegetables. I guess that is why I am attracted to art fairs to sell my paintings.

I live in Loveland Colorado which is about forty minutes from Rocky Mountain Park. Some painting friends and I met in Marine Park around 3:00 today where this painting was completed. The June afternoon rains came in soon after completing this one. I thought the rains would blow through and we would have time for another painting. No such luck. The rains stayed. So back to Starbucks and a ride down the canyon.

Lamp Post #618
Oil on linen on quarter inch Baltic birch
Size 6x8 inches
I completed this painting this morning and it needs ten days to dry from this date to be safe enough to ship. I find that city scape's are related to painting landscapes. I am amazed how such little paintings can give a sense of perspective by use of drawing and fading colors.

Size 16x12
Oil on gesso on pres board
Cost $40
Shipping $14.50
I am practicing figures and gesture painting in preparation for larger paintings of people in city scapes. The larger paintings I sell through galleries. I love the freshness of quick sketch and make a point to not make any corrections after the model changes to a new pose. I do a number of these paintings every week but only a few survive. The rest are wiped off and or painted over. Some come out so wonderfully I want to save and sell or save of references in larger paintings. Please scroll down on my blog to vies other figures paintings for sale. Thanks and enjoy the paintings.
