Almost to 100

Just completed daily painting number 99, in 105 days. Will evaluate at number 100 and probably move on to larger work indoors again to take advantage of the learning experiences. Did purchase more small panels for outdoor painting as the weather should be improving soon here in Seattle. Here are several of the most recent works. 

The top most is my favorite place, Green Lake, 6x8, showing a kayaker in front of Duck Island, recently the home of a huge eagle, who perches at the top of the island, the ruler of all he sees.
Next are the tulip  fields north of  Seattle, that I seem to paint several times a year. This one is 5x7. The boats are in the harbor of Charleston, SC, and 5x7. In a work this size you can only hint at the details, and I think this worked well here. 
The snow scene is in Washington's many mountains and at 8x10, the largest I have been working at lately. This is from an image graciously provided by a friend who is a hiker and climber, and doesn't mind the cold up there. 
Last is a 6x8 sun lit path in Seattle's Kubota Gardens, where I painted last summer.
Enjoy.
