Petite Peinture: After the Storm

...a nice vignette with your favorite farm toy...

A landscape today to change things up a bit after painting several fruit still lifes. I have to say, I love painting landscapes. Actually, I just love PAINTING. It doesn't matter what it is. Including the red flag thing-a-ma-bob on the mail box. Which is one of the things I painted today even though it was on hubby's to-do list and not mine. But since life is all about trade-offs, he kindly unloaded the dishwasher for me.  : )

And before I forget, a big "Thank You" to my prop man, Nicholas, for providing me with the blue tractor for today's second photo.

Love this post Nancy. :) And love the painting, it has such a great soft feel to it. It feels like an escape when I look at it. Lovely.

What a great idea to show a painting in a setting! May I borrow it?

I am also quite taken with the tiny 4 1/2 inch paintings!

This landscape looks great in this small format. I really like how that large cloud wraps around the side.
