Winter Sunrise

The winter sun rises relatively late in my neck of the woods, So I don't have to leap out of bed at some crazy hour in order to witness it. Here's a work in progress now finished after a recent snowfall.

Indian Yellow and the Internet

I recently discovered that Indian Yellow, a delicious oil paint color in a tube, can do all sorts of wonderful and unexpected things. For example, the rich wood of this door in Siena, Tuscany, came to life as a result of glazing with Indian yellow on top of a more subtle base color. This small painting was a joy for me from start to finish, and as a bonus, was sold within hours of being posted on the internet.
