Barons Creekside, New Contemporary Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

Barons Creekside

11x14 oil on canvas

I created this during the Good Art Company Plein Air event in Fredericksburg this week. We stayed at Barons Creekside. The cabins are each very unique and developed with recycled windows, doors and furnishings.  The creek runs through the middle of the cabins and provided great views. . It was a joy to paint along the sounds of the flowing water and gentle breeze.

 I can't help but be inspired from living on the lake. The colors and wild life grace the landscape. This great heron often greets us as we cruise out in the morning. This must be a good fishing spot.

The Play of Light, New Contemporary Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

The Play of Light

9x12 oil on canvas

The play of light on the lake is a never ending display of color.  During the summer we take the boat out in the early hours or as the sun goes down. It is always a beautiful display.

We experience a feeling of peace and a connection to nature. I hope this painting provides you a moment of peace.

Dreamy Sunrise, New Contemporary Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

Dreamy Sunrise

14x11 oil on canvas

This painting evolved from a couple of field studies from the master garden in Granbury. I stirred in a few twist and turns in the small creek leading the eye thru the scene. It was a fun exercise in letting go of the reality and going with a dreamy sunrise.

Working in a series of the same landscape has been a great way to explore new color combinations.

I wanted to suggest first morning's light with this painting.
