Title or Location: Tree
This piece was painted at a class held by @adrianhomersham in Gatley. I have attended a few of his classes in the past and he helped me considerably to gain my confidence in painting again. This particular class was specifically to learn to paint trees with a hake brush and rigger and also how to paint with a credit card. This painting was produced using a minimal palette of three colours. I used the credit card for the trunk and a rigger for the thin branches. My style is semi-abstract.

Title or Location: Autumn is Here!
Autumn gives artists the chance to use beautiful warm colours from their palettes. I always find my spirits uplifted as I walk through golden trees. Red, orange and golden yellow and spatter adds texture to the background of this autumn painting.

Title or Location: Abandoned Farm House
This old farm house is located in Stokes County North Carolina at the base of Hanging Rock. Stokes County has some very rural areas and is a beautiful place to find inspiration for painting. I took the photo 2 weeks ago on a fall day when the trees were changing colors.
