Once again returning to the wetlands near my home on a grey but not super soggy day. I have to say I'm really starting to dig this winter color palette.

No. 861 More Primroses


More Primroses
Oil on gessobord
6" x 6"


On yet another fabulously wet and windy day, I sat on my own front porch and enjoyed painting these cuties.


If a pair of feet could have heroes these boots would be mine. They are waterproof, insulated boots by Vasque and kept my feet warm and dry no matter how wet the day was.

No. 860 Primroses Tucked on the Side


Primroses Tucked on the Side
Oil on Canvas Panel
5" x 7"


Money well spent on these primroses as they were a bright spot on particularly grey days.




My favorite gloves when painting this time of year. They transform from mittens to fingerless and back again to mittens when the fingertips get frosty.

No. 859 Bailey's in Winter


Bailey's in Winter
Oil on Canvas
5" x 7"

I've spent a lot of time here during the fall but never in the winter. It was a windy, rainy day. I was super lucky to get permission to set up under the eave of the closed vegetable stand where it was dry and wind free. Few! What a difference!


Another important piece of my winter plein air gear. Layering is key and this Odlo insulating base layer made a big difference. Also purchased on sale via REI.
