Shady House


sold. (6x8in. - click image to enlarge)

We pass this house every time we drive out to the coast. Every time, I think, man I'd love to paint that. So one time, when I was with my artist pals, we pulled up the long drive and knocked on door. But either no one was home, or they didn't come to the door. We couldn't tell. I snapped a few pictures anyway, on the sly, and just got around to painting it.

I love the brilliance of the blue in the windows! It feels glassy and shady and adds so much to the painting.

I really love the shadows. They are subtle and realistic. I always gave difficulty with shadows like those

I hadn't seen this painting until it popped up on pinterest, and transported me back to childhood summers in eastern Oregon. Thank you.
