Yellow leaves by the San Diego River. We have beautiful autumn weather in December, and I painted this on location last year, and found it in the cabinet a few days ago. I felt like it just needed a little more work and it would be ready to go. Here’s the final result.

Virginia Woods Painting- For Sale
Here’s another painting of the bike path I used to ride to and from work, which wound through farms and forests and along an old railroad cutting through rock. It’s a nice ride if you’re in the Blacksburg area.
I started this painting either during or shortly after getting back from our trip to Blacksburg last autumn.
Autumn Leaves Landscape Painting – For Sale
I painted these beautiful, blazing yellow leaves last week, in mid-December.
It was a mild afternoon along the San Diego River.
This is actually, finally, the last of the plein air pieces from our recent trip to Virginia. I just walked out of the house and set up my easel across the road. I hope to do more studio paintings from the trip as well.

Most every day in Virginia, it rained. But not this day, which was sunny and beautiful. I just finished this small studio painting last night, on the Huckleberry Trail in Blacksburg, VA.

Some of you probably already saw this, but I’d like to donate money to an animal welfare organization in New York City to help with their storm relief efforts. I’m auctioning this painting, and all of the proceeds will go to Empty Cages Collective. You can read more about my effort on this blog post. And thanks again.
