Late Afternoon Light

I tried not to use the umber colors, instead I used blue and green directly for the dark. I hope this approach has resulted a cleaner painting.

Barns

I was trying to capture the atmosphere of the warm morning sun in this painting, and restrained the use of the umber color series for the dark.

Spring blossom

I've always liked to include some architectures in my painting, and I found this Victorian style house perfectly situated in the scene with a blossom apricot tree and lots of small bushes thrived around it. It's a rather ambitious attempt to include so much information in this painting but not lost the focus of what I wanted to express.... I think I learned a lot from painting this painting.
