Sycamore Trail - California Plein Air Oil Painting - Landscape by Karen Winters

Monday, March 1st, 2010

Sycamore Trail
9 x 12 oil
This plein air painting was actually painted last fall, as the leaves of the sycamores were starting to turn - but somehow it escaped my scanner until now. It’s one of the paintings I’ll be bringing to the Casita Del Arroyo show and sale - presented by the California Art […]

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

Bare Naked Sycamores
12 x 9 inches
Oil on linen panel
This is the 2nd of two plein air paintings I did last weekend at Eaton Canyon. The first, posted earlier, featured the mountainside, looking north. This painting, painted from the same spot, looks across the riverbed in a southeasterly direction. After a day standing at the […]

Eaton Canyon Waters
9 x 12 in.
oil on archival linen panel
This morning, after days of gray skies and pouring rain, we woke up to bright blue skies and snow in the San Gabriel Mountains above us. I knew the watershed of Eaton Canyon would be filled with flowing streams, and I was determined to go […]

California Impressionist Plein Air Landscape Painting - A Very Good Year - Falkner Winery

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

“A Very Good Year”
8 x 10 oil on archival canvas panel
Plein air painting - Falkner Winery - Day 2
This is the second of the three plein air paintings I did during the paintout. Because I like to put some sharp detail into my paintings, and because that can be difficult to layer when painting […]

California Landscape Oil Painting - Temecula - Vineyard Afternoon

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Vineyard Afternoon
(Falkner Winery, Temecula, California)
9 x 12
Plein air - oil on linen panel
There’s something about the afternoon light in the Temecula and Fallbrook areas that just makes me melt when I see it. I love the soft peaches and gold tones that come around magic hour … and when it kisses the vines just so, […]

Malibu Pine - California landscape plein air oil painting

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

Malibu Pine
12 x 9 oil on canvas panel
Plein air oil painting
I’ve been so busy this past month with a flurry of shows and then two consecutive weeks painting and stomping around the Eastern Sierra, that I haven’t been posting as regularly as usual. That will change now that things sort of settle back to “normal.” […]

Pasadena Skyline
11 x 14 oil on hardboard panel
Saturday, October 10 (today) is the 4th annual Pasadena Artwalk, which I have been juried into for the 2nd year.
Look for me in Booth 14, just north of the stage, on the east side of El Molino Street.
The Artwalk stretches from Colorado Blvd to Green Street along El […]

The Garden Party
11 x 14 oil on canvas panel

Write for more information
This season I’ve been enjoying doing more and more live event painting, like this recent party at a private home.
True, there’s a little pressure to get a painting mostly done within the time limit of an event, but I thrive on […]
