This series of crows use the same transparent oil point technique I’ve been using all year, with a little sgraffito added.
The clay surface provides enough scratching surface to add thin whimsical lines to the bold and wide brush strokes.

I started this painting a month ago at a plein air class. I’ve added to it several times but fell like it is done now. It is a relaxer…view to ease your eyes.

I love how the high desert grasses looks when everything is blooming, especially the sage.
This big rock sits by itself near the trail. I think it is a chunk of basalt.
SOLD © Pam Van Londen 2009, Valley Morning 1, 8x8x1 on oil on clayboard
Driving towards the Cascade Mts in the morning when the sun is shining is spectacular!
Even if the mountains are a ways away, the lighting brightens up the grasses of the valley floor and cools off the far peaks.
This painting is the first in a series of memories of our drive from Corvallis to Lebanon this morning.
SOLD © Pam Van Londen 2009, PA Snowfall 1, 8x8x1 on oil on clayboard
In April 2006, we had just left NYC’s spring-time glory and overnighted in Pennsylvania. We woke up to snow! The kids in the neighborhood enjoyed it, of course. They played in the tall, dried grass, slid down the slice, and threw themselves down to make snow angels.
This painting was done from a reference photo taken during that playful time. It is part of the Monthly Painting Challenge. See what others are rendering for the month of February.
