Adirondack Abstraction

16x20" Acrylic on canvas.

I'm getting fed up doing these landscape abstractions. I'm going back to the Seven Steps method of Brian's for the next painting which will be a big one 24x48" with the brush. This is the only canvas I have left because I ran out of canvas experimenting and I don't feel like running out and buying any more today. My wife and I like the picture and if I can pull it off I will try to sell it to her for the price of a bingo session but she is a really tough sell.

comments welcome

24x24" acrylic. I'd been wanting to set up these boots of mine in a still life for some time. I was just waiting to break them in enough.

I did try to tone the white down focusing on warm and cool. I don't think I did great, but the painting does look better. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to photograph this one in natural light, so part of the difference is due to different light. Anyway, thanks for the help.

18x24 acrylic. I had a little trouble with sky... still not sure how it connects with the water. Thanks for any comments.
