Oil Pastel, Frame Park Waukesha


Quite pleasant Thursday, 30 F & overcast. Days are getting very short. Light goes quick. Would like to go back and paint here again. Really happy with this painting. The first thing that caught my eye was the red bush, then the bridge. I like the crooked bush on the left too.

Quite chilly in doors for this session.

Oil Pastel Sketch of Vernon Barn


A bit cold today (3 degrees F) and the shadow/light pattern changed very quickly.

Oil Pastel Sketch overlooking Vernon Marsh in Vernon


It was snowing lightly when we met to paint so each stayed in our cars and painted. By the time we left it was snowing heavy enough that the far hills were obscured. It is amazing how brown & green everything is now.
