Gentle Flowing Waters, 8 x 10 Oil Landscape

30 in 30, Day 6
Gentle Flowing Waters
© Donna Pierce-Clark

Went pleinair painting today with a sweet new friend, Shirley.
What a beautiful spot she choose for us to paint!
From high along the banks of the Great Miami River,
we were able to look down into the river,
with its gentle flowing waters.
We had soft warm breezes all day, and
we could hear the water as it cascaded over
a few rocky areas.
We saw several kayakers, and
had a few visitors 
from along the bike path.
Life is SO good!

      Thank you, Jean.

      I absolutely love painting around moving water! I love the sounds of nature and watching the sparkling ripples!

      Bless you!

Touch of Pink, 5 x 7 oil, still life

Touch of Pink © Donna Pierce-Clark ~ Stages of Touch of Pink ~ First the drawing.....    ~ Then, the initial paint-in, just shapes and colors. ~ Then highlights and sparkles and dots! ~ On to the large easel........ ~ ~ Above is my large studio easel, on which I have started a 24" x 36" canvas in oils. We traveled to Rainbow Bridge on a river cruise several years ago and this canvas was actually begun soon after that trip. I think this poor canvas has been neglected for at least 3 years!  I am so happy to be back to this painting.  Below, you can see a few later stages of development and the photo reference on the computer monitor, from which I paint.  Ideally, I would prefer to be painting on location;  but, I'm happy to use the computer monitor for now. ~ To the left of the easel, I also have a still life table. If I am doing a large still life, I'll use this set up and the larger easel. At this time, howev
