Fall on the Ice Pond

Fall colors come and go so fast. The heavy rains seem to knock the deciduous trees barren. This combined with the rapidly shortened length of day and it definitely feels like we are between seasons.

This watercolor was done in under an hour. I should say it is probably not finished. However, the next time I get outside to paint the landscape is likely to look totally different. 

Many artists say it is difficult to capture the colors of fall in a painting without looking too gaudy. Often, I try to capture what I see out in nature. Each time painting I try to have an open mind as it is a new experience.
