Daily Painting – Sycamore Sentinel

7″ x 11″ Watercolor on 140# paper

SOLD

A sycamore at Eaton Canyon in the early fall, the San Gabriel mountains in the background. Do you see the white bird flying in the background over the mountain? It wasn’t intentional, just a little white space left by the twist of my brush as I was putting in the mountains. In fact, I didn’t see it until after I scanned it. Funny how these things are …

I’m not quite sure what’s happened in the last couple of days, or where this somewhat new direction is coming from, but for the moment I’m not going to question it, and just follow it and see what happens.

    Karen, can you fill me in on your e-bay store? I’ve never used E-bay for buying. Ideally I’d like to receive notice when something of your’s goes up for auction. I tried looking for info on e-bay stores but was time-limited and got confused about whether I can even be notified on new items. Thanks for any help you can provide. Alternatively, if you have a fan-club (and you should) consider setting up a distribution list and contacting us directly when new items get put on. Thanks, Michael.

    I love the trunk of that tree, beautiful texture. And the distant mountain is great too, very simple and still very real. Great.
