Trying out Canvas

Mixed Media, 16x20" on Canvas
Recently I purchased some larger canvases and I loved them so much that I went back for more. Here are two pieces I have created. The one above is a scene from Holy Hill near Hartford, Wisconsin. The one below is of Potato Lake way "up North" near Weyerhauser, Wisconsin. These were some enjoyable pieces to create, and my sister has already taken dibs on the one above.

Ink

Roadside Mountains in Ink

The drawing above is rather small, 10x12.5" including the frame, while the one below is much larger, 22x30". The scene above is from the mountains in Romania (seems to be a pretty common subject for me) while the one below is from a photo I took in the Southern Kettle Moraine Unit, a State Park about a half hour from where I live.

Two Landscapes

Oconomowoc Corn Field in Gouache
The corn field above was done in a moment of inspiration just before leaving for work, and then finished later.

The one below I did, for the most part, after work one day while tired and on my way to bed. I missed drawing a lot at the time and was quite busy, but I took the time to put it together anyway. This is from a scene in the Romanian mountain region of Transylvania.
