Travelings Through the Rainstorm, 64 and 65

Travelings in Green and Gray

I like this one. I like the grays. I like the movement of the green. I was inspired by rain and the colors of a downpour.

And this painting was not solo. I painted with this one

This one was inspired by what I saw outside my front door in that downpour. It looks like a broad, distant landscape, but really, it's the shadow of a car outside and on the other side of the street, a house with trees behind it.

I like that it doesn't look like that.

Anyway, I"m still discombobulated, so until I get my head and the rest of things at least partly organized, I'm going to keep this short.

Two paintings today. I have another one for tomorrow. Maybe by tomorrow I'll have another yet. I have some things that need to be finished.

  1. The red stripe on the right (top painting) reminds me of taking a photo of a moving car...

  3. I love Day 64. . . and maybe it is just late here, but in that tree to the right, I see the whole top part as a face in profile, looking "back" to the left. Traveling???? Or maybe I just need some sleep. :)
