Another 6×6 watercolor from along route 15 near Lucketts. I liked the light effect on the roof.

Sheep at sunset
6×6 watercolor of some sheep hanging out between Leesburg and Luckets.
Through the trees
6×6 watercolor of the Potomac River. Ultramarine Blue, Viridian, Burnt Sienna, Van Dyck Brown, Yellow Ochre. A great color palette for fall and winter painting.
Red Rock Overlook
I hike and run at Red Rock Overlook a lot. This is the signature view. I wanted to see if I could make it look as if it had classical importance. 5×7 watercolor in yellow ochre and Van Dyck brown.
Frozen Potomac river
The river has frozen in a long of places. This is a view of the Virginia shore from Point of Rocks in Maryland. 6×6 watercolor.
Private Property—Potomac River
First painting of 2018. I came across this scene on one of my hikes along the Potomac river a month ago.
Sun through the trees
I liked the effect of sunlight coming through the trees on a hill along the river. There were so many trees, so I tried to simplify a bit to focus on the effect
Another Potomac river study
I am planning to do a series of very large Potomac river landscapes, so am trying some some different compositions.
Finished Hazy Potomac River Piece
For this scene the thing that most interested me was the white buoys in the distance on the right. I saw them from far off and tried to get as close as I could before I ran out of land to walk on. A little mystery on an otherwise calm afternoon.
Morning painting
A pot catching a glint of sunlight in my front yard. Cobalt blue, nickel azo yellow, viridian, transparent pyrrol orange, and magenta. The shadows are viridian, cobalt blue, and magenta. The highlights are some white gouache.
