WINTER DREAMS

"WINTER DREAMS" Hello from snowy Taos! -- This is one of my all-time favorite places -- it was the winter road home to the ranch on Llano Quemado, Truchas. Laid in supplies of groceries - if it snowed during the Christmas holidays, the snow plow wouldn't make it for a few days. Lots of books to read ... silence, coziness ... peace.

AUTUMN FIELDS - SOLD

"AUTUMN FIELDS" (Valdez, N.M.)--SOLD
28"x22" Completed Original Oil on Belgian Linen
Framed in Gold with Linen Liner

26 October 2008 -- Had a great time with this painting and all the while I sat at the easel, I had the feeling I was just holding the brush -- that the canvas almost painted itself! When I gathered the material for this piece, I stood high above the valley on the Rim Road -- and somehow when I look at this painting I have the feeling that I am "floating above" the landscape. Have decided that this completed canvas will be the "study" for a 48"x36" canvas. ENJOY! -- DC
