Late Summer in the Skagit Delta24x20 Inches

This is another one of those paintings that every one done just missed the mark. The studies were a bit too abstract. No problem I thought I'll just tighten it up a bit. The next painting was too tight. Looks like a photo a visitor to the studio said. And back and forth the efforts went until this one. Well, it will have to do. Some paintings paint themselves and some are a struggle. I have noticed it helps if I get out of the way and let the painting and the process proceed and only intervene when the painting starts to veer of course
