KMD2364 Fall En Bruges
SOLD
I haven't posted in a few days as I have been busy working on a big installation, along with my Brushstrokes partners, John and Anita. It is for the Trailhead Lodge of Wildhorse Meadows in Steamboat Springs here in Colorado.
Meanwhile, to address this daily paintings I just finished this one of a scene from Bruges, Belgium. I was there with my friend Pat in the fall and it was glorious. It is one of my favorite spots in Europe.

KMD2362 Springtime in the Rockies
SOLD
The Wild Iris in June are something to behold here in Colorado. This pastoral scene is in South Park, Colorado, a vast valley surrounded by majestic mountains. Summer brings some incredible skies when the afternoon storms roll in but this setting was in the morning before the clouds rolled in.

KMD2361 Lovely and Luminous
Spring, my very most favorite time of year to wander and meander with a camera in hand. These iris were found on an early morning walk with my dog Farley. He finds my stopping every two feet to photograph a scene as irritating as I do when he does the same to check his P-Mail!!!

KMD2360
SOLD
The title of this painting is a description of how I felt a few weeks ago while wandering on a cool, crisp spring morning. I have gone to to this street every spring for years and it is like stepping into the country side as most of the homes are on several wooded acres. This scene is one of the few that is the same every year when I return. It was this bright in the morning light!

KMD2359 Bright as Spring
This composition just spoke to me as I was perusing my photo reference for today's painting. The Black Eyed Susan seems like such a cheery flower and this scene was such a wonderful contrast of the delicate daisy like flowers with the hardy sunflower.

KMD2358 Bountiful Spring
SOLD
I found this scene a few weeks ago while driving home from doing a plein air painting at Washington Park. It has been awhile since I have painted outside and what a perfect morning it was. The temperature was just right, the skies were blue and everything looked and smelled so fresh. Perfect champagne days, as my mother called them, have been rare this spring here in Colorado with a plethora of thunderstorms. I am not complaining however as I have never seen it so green and lush.

KMD2357 This is Spring
Tulips are always the sign telling me that spring is really here with winter giving out at long last. I found these colorful beauties at our incredible Denver Botanic Gardens while wandering with some good friends and, as always, armed with a camera. I loved the less structured colorful scene of these tulips surrounded by the delicate lace like tiny flowers.

KMD2356 Gentle Brilliance
I found these poppies the other day while walking my dog Farley. It was a perfect spring morning with cool temperatures, birds singing and the sun on our shoulders. We have been experiencing a wet and mostly cloudy spring here so it made this day even more perfect. I am in heaven with all the fresh scents of spring along with all the poppies and iris in full bloom. This is my most favorite time of year. I wish it would last a little longer!

KMD2355 Red Paintbrush
The Indian Paintbrush wildflower is so majestic and one of my favorite wildflowers, but then, I really have never found a flower I didn't like. Paintbrush so liven up the landscape where they bloom, especially the red ones.
