Tennessee inspired this painting

When I’m outside to paint on beautiful days like this

so all is not lost

I spent the whole day in the park and logged a six-mile hike to get my snow fix

although I always endeavor not to stop in the middle of the sidewalk and stare upwards vacantly

Study, Lead Me On Trees Tennessee inspired this paintingVibrant fall foliage beckons around a forest road in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. When I go out to gather ideas for my paintings, I often try to get lost. Im always curious about what is around the next bend or what lies ahead after the next random turn. Sometimes, those impulse decisions lead to the best locations and ideas.
