Painting #100 - wow, I'm at 100! I've actually done more as I didn't post everything I painted - but just about. Anyway, this painting was a pain in the butt! I'm not sure if I like it, if its finished ... everyday I change something and I'm at the point where I'm tired of changing things. Today I want to add red leaves in the front??? I think I'll just leave it and do a red, black and white birch tree painting - something nice and modern.

Painting #99 - I just wanted to play around with an orange sky in a landscape. I was surprised that this painting looks more like a summer landscape rather than an autumn one. It must be the splashes of pink!

Painting #98 - I've been playing around with many types of mixed media and applied quite a variety of them to this painting before I began. Several textures are visible and thus, these patterns reminded me of how people should respect the environment. We should leave nature the way we find it. The only thing we should leave behind is our good energy.

Painting #97 - This painting was originally inspired by a photo my neighbour gave me, however, the painting ended up taking on a life all of its own. I like the movement and the sense I fun and freedom I felt while painting it.
