This commissioned oil painting was causing undue stress. First it was a dark and murky ranch house, then it became a barn, then the barn was in the wrong place, and pretty soon, I was doubting my ability to do the painting at all. I finally resorted to measuring, comparing my proportions to the photo, and using this neato tool to get the angles exactly right. 
Finally, I was able to begin the detailing that I love so much.
The sky needs another layer, there are more trees to put in, the grass needs a bit more detailing, and then there will be grazing cattle. 
I’ll show you the yellow ranch house rescue tomorrow.
You might still be able to order a 2023 calendar but they might be gone by now. (There were 3 left yesterday.) Unless I see you in person, it won’t arrive before Christmas. HOWEVER, it will arrive before January. Mineral King HIKES 2023
