Paintings for 5-5-13

 In a way this is a plein air painting, in that I painted it with the natural light coming through our kitchen window.
I painted this from the same kitchen window. It was a cloudy over cast day. In the past I have had trouble with colors on these kind of days. So today, I studied and studied this view until I started seeing a pinkish hue in the sky at the horizon that slowly faded to a blueish color. 

 Here is one I painted last summer. It never made my blog because I hung it up at Nina's Flowers and gifts the day after it was painted. It is one I really like and it kind of makes me feel as though I am not getting any better and maybe even a little worse.
 This is one from last week's trip to Red Rocks, but didn't make the blog because, I left it in Sharon's car and didn't get it back until today.

And finally the painting from Weds. night. Definitely not my best.
