This is the continuation of the same painting previously posted. You still see some fall colors and also feel the warmth of spring at the same time. Just a touch of light in the distance hills of a town.

BREAK. SOLD

" BREAK " By Artist Doug Carter,.
You feel and see a change in the weather. Winter is leaving and spring is pushing through .The cool bluish morning fog breaking into a beautiful new day. You can see the distance lights of the valley afar off . The warmth of the sun breaking through and lighting up the sky with such colors. If a painting could hug you with feelings this is it . I have another coming from the same spot as well.

SETTLED


SETTLED by Artist Doug Carter, 6 X 8 oil painting.

I must have drove past this place hundreds of times right off the road and never noticed it. I feel sometimes that is how life is we really need to stop and smell the roses as its said. Once I found it wanted to capture the  tranquil feeling of this cabin in just the right settings. This is a study for a larger painting and would like to know how you feel about the choice of setting and colors etc. I do appreciate your help and feed back as always enjoy.

" Quietness ". SOLD

" Quietness " By Artist Doug Carter . 5 X 7 Oil painting.

Art allows you to paint places and create a setting based on the scene in front of you. This spot is just as beautiful as it sounds in a world that just screams for attention . Take this exit and enjoy your time alone with your thoughts and ask Lord whats it all about.

"ROLLING" SOLD

" Rolling " By Artist Doug Carter., 5 X 7 Oil Painting,.
Using some colors to build a exciting mood in my paintings even though you see reds and yellow there enough cools to calm you down and relax you in this scene. Distance Depth and sky and I think this shows it all well.
