Quiet Reflections

18x 48 x1 1/2 oil on hardboard -
No frame required for this painting the sides are painted black for a clean modern look.

A painting with both palette knife and brush work to get a nice effect of the smooth water and the textured grasses. This painting gives me a calm feeling and is one I can look at for a very long time and meditate on all the colors that are reflecting in the water. The golds from the trees in the distance reflecting catch my eyes in the pond and keep me in the water. 

I hope you can have a calm moment and reflect on all the good in your life.

I started this painting on the first lake we hiked to. It was a

very serene place and you could watch the fish jumping in the

lake, however we didn't catch anything here. My oldest

granddaughter kept asking me about the sticks in

the water... you know...."How did they get there?"

....."What was there first the tree or the water?"

Seeing life through a childs eyes....almost makes me

wish I were a kid again!

Thanks for Visiting!
