"Reflections"

8x10 Oil
To purchase please contact me, Kathryn@anaturalframe.com

Last Thursday Susie wanted to try her hand in oil painting again......we thought

it might be a little easier for her if we painted the same thing so she could see some of my techniques. We had a blast and both paintings turned out very good!

Jarbidge Nevada "Tree Study" No.1

8x10 Oil

To purchase please contact me, Kathryn@anaturalframe.com

This is a study of Trees!

Some of the artists that I admire have an amazing way of capturing the beauty of trees. I know.....such a simple thing your thinking to yourself......but I can assure you, to paint them without them looking overworked......and looking like a real tree in the forest is not so simple.

This tree stand is one of many up in the Jarbidge, Nevada area where the evergreen trees there look like perfect cones....I am not sure exactly what kind of trees they are, so if you happen to know the correct breed I would love to hear from you!

Thanks for Visiting!

Lamoille in the Fall

18x24 Oil Palette Knife painting

SOLD

Details

You asked for it! A palette knife painting....Whew,... do

you know how long it has been since I did a total

knife landscape? Hmmmm, at least 16 years ago,

probably longer but I failed to date the last

one I did and cannot really remember.

I enjoyed the challenge and loved the freedom of this

style of painting. Very satisfying when you backup

and see that the blob of paint you just put on

actually does look like a tree!

Thanks for Visiting!

Lamoille Fall ~ Study

5x7 OIL

Copyright 2008 Kathryn Grider All rights reserved

This is a small study that I am planning on painting a larger

version of in the very near future. It won't be long

now....down to just a few weeks that I will be able to have

this view in the canyon, I am hoping I can go do some more

Plein Air painting up there before the weather gets too cold!

My son told me today.....according to the Farmers

Almanac we are in for a COLD winter... so I am hoping to drag

my pack mule (my husband) out before the winter season starts.

THANKS for VISITING!

Lamoille Spring Melt 20x24 Oil

Lamoille Spring Melt is an older painting that
I have hanging in my home. For a long time one
of my goals was to learn how to paint water....
then rocks under water....I am still trying to master
both water & rocks.

Lupine and Light 16x20 Oil Palette Knife

I love seeing the wild Lupine in the Spring. This painting was fun for me, I wanted the unrestricted and abstract
feelings that the palette knife gives me for this piece.
