Wheels on the Bus...

Oil on panel, 8"x10"

I found this bus sitting under these large Oak trees between Hallettsville and La Grange. It makes me think of all the kids that rode it to and from school and all the laughter and horseplay that went on inside of it.

Ranch and Cow

Oil on panel, 8"x6"

Clouds and Waves

Oil on panel, 8"x6"

This is the last of the paintings I started en plein air in Destin, Florida. Again I have adjusted much of the painting in the studio hardly justifying en plein air status.

This is another scene started en plein air on the beach in Destin Florida. I completed it in the studio adjusting color and value and adding detail.
