Sunset with Palm Tree

Here's another palm tree study.

LA Skyline

oil on hardboard panel, 16" x 20"

This is a palette knife painting done from a photo I found online.  I've been wanting to do city scenes and high-rises in particular, and I really love palm trees.  So, it was very satisfying to combine the two in one image.

Some Kind of Pine

iPad painting, 10" x 14"

Another 10-minute sketch done whilst on a walk with the dogs.  They are forcing me to work faster, which is probably not a bad thing.   I have no idea what kind of tree this is.  Could be a pine, could be a palm.  Never seen another like it, that I can recall.

Flora

acrylic on canvas, 20" x 20"

This is an abstract painting from my imagination sparked by a desire to paint a gorgeous purple and white bearded iris that opened as I was leaving the ranch this past week.  As you can see, it morphed into something else entirely.  At least I kept to the plant world, sort of.  I do enjoy working without a concrete plan, just to see what happens.
