Early spring, Carter Road

My artist friend Michelle came to my side of Ohio for the weekend. The wind was bitterly cold, but we were determined to paint every day. One day we went to Kirkland to see our friend Jim's art show. We came back through Middlefield, Amish country, and painted a farm that sold baked goods. I sold that painting. The painting below was done in the evening. It is a view from Carter Road in Fairfield township.

Driving up, down and around the hills in this area of Eastern Pennsylvania I found a sheep farm , which I spent two different days trying to capture the essence of. The second evening, a little more than an hour before dark still not happy with that painting, I packed up my easel and drove about a half mile up the road. This scene caught my eye, I parked quickly set up my easel and using the same pallet of paint, created this small painting, quiting only when it was too dark to see color. This painting has been accepted into the upcoming 36th annual Hoyt Regional Juried Art Exhibition. SOLD
