No.882 Fall on Highway 2

Fall on Highway 2

Oil on Panel

5"x 7"

Wow! Fall is spectacular right now up in the mountains. I was really lucky to spend several days painting and taking photos in the Leavenworth area. A big thank you to Jodie and Bruce for letting me stay at their cabin. I'm just wonderstruck at all the beautiful fall color I saw up there.

On a separate note I've started a new project! I'm returning to my original 365 day painting challenge but this time I'm documenting it via time lapse video. This way you can see not only the paintings but also how they are created. I will post video twice a week. It's been a struggle to add all of this to my regular schedule. I hope to find shortcuts and get into a rhythm soon. I probably won't post daily to my blog this time though. If you'd like to keep updated on my progress I would love to have you subscribe to my YouTube channel.

We are on our way to the annual Playgroup Campout. This year it was decided to meet east of the mountains where there was a much better chance of sun and warmth. We stopped first at beautiful Lake Wenatchee.

 

 

 

Morning in Crescent Bar

The second stop was at the small resort of Crescent Bar on the Columbia River. The dam south of here had a crack in it. Scary, right? The water level was lowered for repairs. Without access to the water, poor Crescent Bar was a bit of a ghost town.
