yellow morning...
oil on panel 8x10"
just got back from a mad week in holland
first we painted the tullip fields in the north of holland
red hot
oil on panel 8x10"
we raced our bikes from field to field,the weather was hot and the colors and smells so intense
we ended several days with headaches...things were so hectic,at one point i wasn't sure wether
i was setting up my easel or breaking it down...
oil on panel 8x10"
one of the hardest things was composition...holland is so flat and the bulb fields so straight
Evening
oil on panel 8x10"
the evenings were the best,things cooled down and colors warmed up in the evening sun
after a little siesta it was fine painting...
more paintings and pics will follow
went to amsterdam as well...

You've managed to create little passages of painterly interest in each of these, whether it be an extra bit of texture or the placement of colours against each other. Very enjoyable.
You've done a good job with unfamiliar landscapes. They really give a sense of what it must be like in the bulb fields in Spring.
