Cloud sketch for commission

I am completing a house commission right now and needed to work out some colors and forms for the clouds I am including in the sky.  This little 4"x4" painting is a cloud sketch I did today for this purpose.  I am offering this for auction on DPW with a starting bid of $15 if you are interested!

I can't help it, I love thick paint!  This is a close up of the above painting.
 It may be little, but it packs a punch.

One more landscape study for ya...  Again, I am enjoying playing with slightly thicker paint and trying to keep my colors pure. I love the shapes and color that landscapes afford!

Down a country road

Lately I have been fascinated by the landscape.  More accurately, I have been admitting to myself just how much I like looking at our beautiful planet.  There are endless scenes to paint and amazing compositions and color combinations everywhere I look.  I can't drive 1/4 mile without wishing I could take pictures of what I am seeing to review later for future paintings!  Anyway.

This little one is a landscape of some country road near my house.  I liked the abstractness of the composition, the colors and I particularly enjoyed applying the paint as thickly as I did.  Hope you like!
