 Many people tell me that with years past the winters become more and more unpleasant to them. I can't agree more! Another change I notice for myself, is that I have started to appreciate and enjoy the autumn more than I used to. This year the summer was nice and hot and the cool nights started steadily in September. Both required conditions for a magnificent display of autumn colors. 
This is passed now and the threes dropped their colorful attire, but there will be some Indian summer days to enjoy.

Abstract Landscapes

A few more loose landscapes done wet-in-wet with palette knife and plastic card. It is so much fun not knowing what will happen with the pigments and shapes. The results give me ideas how to use some of these effects.
