~ " Bennett Valley Pond " ~

Here's a photo of the finished work that I've decided to title: " Bennett Valley Pond " ~ 28" x 28" ~ oil on canvas ~ 2013 ~
This will be one of my entrees in the Marin County Fair Fine Art Competition that will be juried tomorrow. (June 22, 2013) at the Marin Center Fairgrounds in San Rafael, California.
It represents many hours of painting...

Adding Geese

I decided to add a pair of Canada Geese to the painting of the small pond in the vineyards off Bennett Valley Road near Santa Rosa, California that I've been working on. I still have a ways to go, but I'm nearing the finish for sure. This is oil on canvas ~ 28" x 28" ~

The Little Pond

Adding strokes of the essencial colors starts bringing this painting of a small vineyard pond into focus. Every touch of pigment brings it a little closer to reading as real in your mind's eye. Creating the illusion of looking into a scene rather than at it...
  Mahalo for your interest.            Timo

Fun start!

I started this fun new painting Wednesday while I was working at The ARThouse Gallery in Glen Ellen, California. It's a 28" square canvas that I built myself. Stay tuned for the process in progress...

"Beginnings" is done

                         I signed the new seascape a few days ago..So it could be finished, but as long as it's here in the studio, it's still a work in progress. I like most of it..,And , I am working on a new one again...So maybe this is the final mode of this one that I'm calling "Beginnings"~ oil on canvas ~ 22" x 28" ~
