More Night Scenes

Here are three more night scenes.  To see even more of my night scenes, click here: http://on.fb.me/1moSO04

Imagine returning from a midnight sail or fishing trip . . . you might see this.

This is called "Deck Party."  It's on my "wanna-be" yacht.

This is our son's home in Garland, Texas.

Night scenes

Lately I've reviewed some night scenes I've painted over the years.  Here are a few.

This is one of my first, titled "First Light."

I call this "After Mountain Vespers."

Several years ago, a group of painters visited Weatherford, Texas.  We stayed here, a B and B called Angel's Nest.

Old homestead

My granddad Douglass built this home more than 100 years ago in Memphis.  He and my grandmother raised five youngsters there, including my mother.  She, my dad and brother, and I lived there for several years, too.

When built, it was near the outer limit of Memphis; now it is well in mid-town.   It stayed in the family as long as my granddad lived.

Richardson Civic Fountain

In October, Urban Sketchers-Texas met in Richardson (my home town) as part of the new Ricochet 15, a celebration of the arts here.  In addition to sketching, I did a plein air painting of the civic fountain.

Waxahachie Paint-Out, September 2015

Twice a year Southwestern Watercolor Society travels to a nearby town to paint on location, or Plein Air, or just a Paint-Out.  Last weekend we were in Waxahachie, an hour south of us.  First I painted and beautiful old Victorian home, then a commercial building near the town square.

Thanksgiving

It's fall, y'all, and Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  This is titled "Thanksgiving Birds," but I sorta liked my alternate title:  "So Tell Me Again, Big Guy, When Is Thanksgiving?"

Weather Change

It's always fun to paint changing weather.  Here's one of storms coming.
