Small Wonders, Great Works

This Friday is the opening of the Small Wonders, Great Works exhibition at the National Cowboy Museum in Oklahoma.  I was very honoured to be invited to send two paintings, shown earlier.

Fall Cottonwoods with pond 9 x 16 Oil/Wood Panel

Yesterday MA Printmaking first years went on a 'school outing' to the Tate Modern to see the Gerhard Richter exhibition.  I confess I was not very familiar with his work, but this exhibit was amazing and spanned most of his life.  What was so interesting was the mix of styles, often created within the same year or two.

I very much like your painting Lynne, it has a watercolour feel to it in the sky and around the main tree. Freshness is the word I am looking for. You have captured autumn so well. all the best with the exhibition.
