Grasslands II

I am still having fun with grasses! This painting is the signature piece for my upcoming show at Edmond's Fine Art Institute. The artist's reception is July 9 from 5:30 to 7:30; the show runs through July 24th. I invite everyone to come by, browse, and hopefully, enjoy the 20 works I have included in the show. I am currently working on the next painting that highlights the grasses of the prairie--this one is a result of a plein-aire painting trip to Mt. Scott in the Wichita Wildlife Refuge with my friend and fellow artist, Sharon Webster (sharon webster. blogspot.com). We had such a great time; the wildflowers were gorgeous and the bison cooperated by moving across the road at a reasonable pace.
