"Fort Henry" by Paula Formanek

What's on my Easel?? ...

I painted the bulk of this painting last summer on location, en plein air on the beautiful hill at the historic site of Fort Henry, overlooking Navy Bay and the St. Lawrence River ... today I made a few touch ups and finally signed it.

Oil with knife on panel. I'm happy with this painting ... when I look at it, I'm there! ...

Windy December by Kay Wyne

Windy December

8" x 10" Oil on RayMar Cotton Panel

En Plein Air Palette Knife Painting

This is probably one of my favorite plein air paintings.  I have so many paintings that I started outside, but was unable to finish.  I stuck it out on this one, even though it was a very cold and windy December day at White Rock Lake.  I like the feel of the painting...kind of moody, and because I used the palette knife, there was a lot of scraping and modeling of the oils.  This painting is available, and looks great in a dark mahogany wood frame with a gold inside liner.  Contact Kay for more information.  Thanks, Kay
