Week 29 - Aug 27-Sep 2 - A Day on the Escarpment


Yes, I was back at it again this week. 

I spent most of this summer preparing to move, so painting took a back seat. I was pleased, however to spend a day with a painting pal, Jan Yates in a lovely area behind her home on the Niagara Escarpment, where everyway you turned there was something beautiful to look at.

One view was a wide open field, another area was lined by gorgeous pines and many hay bales sat in the middle. Another was rolling hills and yet another, rambling grape vies and goldenrod. It was difficult to decide what to work on and I am sure I will do more work based on this afternoon.
The day was perfect and it was fun to get back outside and paint.

Fall Colour Starting
I hate to admit it, but the trees are starting to change. The subtle colour on the hill was lovely.

Red Barn
The contrast of this great red barn against the surrounding green was stunning.

Day Ending
As the day got later, the sun was starting to set behind the pines on the hill.
