These are two paintings that I did in preparation for a demonstration to the Los Altos (California) Art Club.  They are both 8" x 8" studies, and I'm showing the flower field in the frame that I like to use.  It is protected with tru vue glass and it is ready to hang.
I decided to paint from the flower field in the demo, blowing it up to a 12" x 12", as it was less complicated than the study with the houses.
Los Altos Art Club was a very nice groups of artists and seemed to be interested and engaged.  This is encouraging, as I have another demo next April in San Jose, CA.

These are two paintings that I started on-site in Mendocino in early October, and completed in my studio.  The top painting is an 8" x 10" and I'm planning on making a larger painting of this same scene, working from my study and photos I took on site.
The bottom painting is a 12" x 12".  They are both framed in black frames with gold fillets. My next post will show "Summer flowers", framed in this particular frame.  I'm using these frames quite a bit these days, as I really like the look.
