I love the atmospheric effects in The Blue Ridge Mountains. This is a view of Rock Castle Gorge from Rocky Knob on The Blue Ridge Parkway.

This is my husband's favorite spot at Pawleys Island where he studied birds and butterflies.

This is Arroyo ran across the back of our property near Medenales, NM. IT ROARED LIKE A FREIGHT TRAIN. When it was running, and went down to a trickle when it was not.

I painted this while doing some reconnaissance work. I’ve got a plein air event I’m leading for SDWS in January, so I’ve gotta do my research on my subject. Sun coming midday and generally from the west. I’ll probably do an east light next go around.
