Driving up to Mt. Lyford yesterday we had a spectacular NW sky. To red to be believed, and over the top.

Here is how it looked though! I put it here as another sky led to a satisfying set of images, though not all as satisfying as the best of them.

Green

One thing leads to another. This was somewhere along the way to the ANZPA image. I think it may lead to something else one day too.

Train View

I put the view inside the picture.

Playfully … after Matisse

I like the idea. Not only windows but paintings, computers & TV. Some of my portraits show bits of TV, so that is a start.

Hudson River

I took the train to Beacon to see the Dia there. Great day. I enjoyed the view from the window and the hazy nothingness of the Hudson as we left New York. While on the train I painted this image in my mind. Exactly like this. What surprised me is that 20 min out of the city there is hardley a house to be seen and there is bush, not farmland.

Liberty

I got close enough on the Staten Island ferry to have a sense that I saw the statue, and this is from a photo I took. There will be a few more goes at this. I got some other good material to work from while I was in New York.
