Painting: Fall Color
Cedar Lee February 23rd, 2009
This is just a quick update to share a new work.
My painting area is not yet set up in the new studio, so it will be awhile before I get back into my normal studio routines. But I’ve been able to work on a small painting over the last few days, at a makeshift painting station I set up on a table. I plan to do more small-scale paintings in the coming weeks.
This is painted from a photo I took during a walk a few months ago. It was a clear, crisp day when the trees were at the height of their bright fall colors, and the sunlight played in the leaves of the giant trees above me.

In other news: In a few short weeks my husband and I will be going on a tropical vacation–our third honeymoon! Our last honeymoon was 4 years ago, so this is a long-awaited trip. I’m bursting with anticipation. My next blog will include all of the scintillating details!
Cedar, I love the colors in this painting. I have fall photos from my favorite place in the world, looking up into the trees, and this immediately took me there.
It is a beautiful painting. Fall is my favorite time of year with such a splendid array of colors! I also love looking upward into the trees peaking beyond to the perfect autumn sky. Keep the creativity flowing and best wishes on your upcoming trip. Maybe you could use some of the tropical vegetation that many of us never get to see up close and personal.
