Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood

I have been waiting to start this painting for a while now – I haven’t done a really big painting since last summer! I originally wanted it for the Oshawa show but I knew I wouldn’t finish it on time.

Outside it’s 37 celsius but in my painting Summer is winding down. The day is cool, there is almost a bite to the air; Fall has brushed the leaves with colour.

I’m working with a big palette on this one (another thing I’m excited about ). I’m going to have a great time managing the reds, oranges, yellows, greens, blues and purples in this painting. I can hardly wait to see how this one turns out – is it the weekend yet?!
