Still organizing paintings that I've set aside, and still loving these western skies!  It's no wonder so many  artists in the past have painted these skies.  They're mesmerizing, constantly changing, never endlessly beautiful.  And, they can be a distraction when driving.  You always want to pull over and paint or take another photo!

And another western sky among the pieces that I'd set aside.  Actually, this one is hanging in my studio!  I've loved looking at it, but am now ready to see it go to a new home.

I love painting skies.  Colorado, and much of the west, is filled with wide open ranges and vast skies.  There is a never endless changing view everywhere you look.  I love how the clouds create ground shadows allowing for great color and value contrasts.

This is the second of four sunrise pieces that I painted last week.  I truly am grateful that I look at this view.  This mornings sunrise was a good one, beautiful blue-violets and oranges.  Maybe you'll see it one day!

Sit and Watch

Sit and Watch
Oil  5" x 7"
$100.00 + $10. s/h
On the mornings when I get up early enough, this is the view out of our kitchen deck doors (although, the trees have grown and I do see a bit less than this!)  I don't need to be in a hurry to get anywhere, so when the sunrise is spectacular, as it often is, I try to just sit and watch it while enjoying my morning cup of coffee. 
 
I have posted many morning sunrises on my blog.  I painted this sunrise, and 3 other skies last week.  It was the perfect time for me to paint them as it fit in with the DPW weekly challenge, which was "skies".  And, I sold 5 sky paintings at Summerland Gardens, Gifts and Gallery.  All in all a good week!  Beautiful sunrises here in Colorado Springs, great sales, and time to Sit and Watch!
