Park - Hot Springs, AK

Another palette knife painting
of a scene in a park on a hill
at the edge of  the town of
Hot Springs, AK 
The scenery there was beautiful
I love the tall trees
The parks there are quite beautiful
They stir a wonderful feeling inside!

Alive in the Shadows

Here is another palette knife in oil

I like the bright background
and the lone tree in front
This painting is from two
photos and additions from
my mind. The bright back-
ground is painted with a
brush and the middle and
foreground are painted with
a palette knife

Marler's Garden

This palette knife painting
is a plein air painting
completed at the annual
Ste Genevieve Garden Walk
in May of 2009.
It was a beautiful day, just a
a little cool and windy
There were several gardens
in the yard.
This view appealed to me
because of the color contrast.

Winter's Icy Cover

Another palette knife painting-
We were on a bus trip to
Kentucky to the Quilt Museum
An ice storm engulfed
the landscape in a
shimmering veil.
The photo was taken
thru the bus window
therefore the colors
are not natural.
It worked -
I like the soft colors.

Ste Genevieve - Looking From Fort kaskaskia

This is a plein air painting
completed in the early fall
looking to Missouri from
Fort Kaskaskia in Illinois 
Ste Genevieve Art Guild
made the trip to
'Paint the Sunset'
we were all too eager
to catch the
'golden hour' and consequently rushed way too fast to capture the most beautiful sunset ever - Even the moon was dancing in the beautiful glow of the rose streaked sky!
SOLD

On Industrial Road

Another Palette Knife painting
A local view at the corner of a
rural road
Beautiful views of Ste Genevieve Area

Barn Off Hwy 55 - Schaefer's

Palette Knife Oil Painting

This scene is one of the most eyecatching
along the highway going north from
Ste Genevieve, MO
 Every season it displays a peaceful scene
 of peace and  beauty.
Every year the buildings become a little more weathered 
This adds to the area's beauty

After A Rain

A Palette Knife Painting in Oil

I like the mood of this scene
It Looks like a steamy summer day
