Numbers 9 and 10.



An extraordinary thing happened here in Missoula this last fall, we had a bitter cold snap which caused the trees here to go dormant before all the leaves fell, so most of them look like they are perpetually in autumn, and when the sun shines (which seems to be more often this year) everything has the most beautiful color, along with the winter sun being so low you get really great shadows.

The other painting is of Faith again, she's been such a great model for me, I'll be doing more of her I'm sure. 

We're off to Phoenix this week, perhaps a painting or 2 of the desert might be a nice change of pace, in plein air even.

10 down, 90 to go.
