Nocturn

8 x 10 oil on canvas
I have been absent from posting these past few weeks. I have been busy painting some larger pieces (3' x 4') for a gallery. Painting larger is definitely more challenging. There is a lot more paint, mistakes are bigger and finding space to put such a large canvas is difficult. I did enjoy it and will be doing some more larger ones.
As pretty as the snow is, we are all starting to get a little tired of it. Even so, when I woke up to such a pretty sight down the street, I decided to do a little study. I'm looking forward to trying more nocturns in the near future.

Love it Catherine. It is amazing at night. As a night owl I see the trees all covered in snow, then wake up to see it melted and feel sorry. We're perhaps sick of the slush more than the snow. Keep doing the Nocturns.
