Painting at Courthouse Butte |
As we get closer to the holidays—and if we're not too busy with holiday preparations and family—our time opens up a bit. People take time off from work and use up a few vacation days. Even though most folks consider what I do for a living "fun," it is work, and I, too, try to take a few vacation days.
For me, this means heading to the field without an agenda. I go out just to paint. Period.
This past week, I went out with my friend M.L. Coleman to paint some of the local Sedona scenery. Here are two paintings I did, both of which I think are successful partly because I did go without an agenda.

Although I painted these on a vacation day, I'm putting them up for sale. Maybe you're still working on your gift-buying? And don't forget that my holiday sale is still on:
