Mountain Lake Painting



Here's the picture that I just recently finished painting for my brother. It is about 5ft by 2ft big, so it took me a while since I wasn't really used to painting something of this size. I think it took me about 9 months to a year actually (I kept getting distracted). So, I think it's done. I may look at it later and think of something that needs to be changed, but for now, I'm calling it done. Whatcha think?? (click on it to see it larger)
This was it back in January...

My Past Paintings:

Here are some of my paintings from the last year:

Reflections- Jan 10
Inspiration: I just thought that it was a fabulous picture, and wanted to paint it.
Hydrangea
Inspiration: I love to paint the flowers of the season- this season happened to be summer & I love hydrangeas.Dahlia- Once again, I painted this last early summer when the Dahlia's at the Botanical Gardens were amazing


Assateague Island light house
Inspiration: My mom loves the lighthouses & this is one she spent considerable time around, so I painted it for her.Iris

Inspiration: Once again, a flower of the season, I painted this last spring

Venice

Inspiration: My husband tells me that this is one of the most romantic places that he's ever been (shame I wasn't there) so it's just a place that I would like to go, and since it may be a while until I get there- I paint it!

The Wave

Inspiration: I wanted to paint something for my husband- he loves the waves.

Tulip

Inspiration: Flower of the season- painted last spring
