This is my most recent work that I've completed!  Wow, what a beautiful place.  I was sitting next to the Blue Ridge Parkway during the most colorful time of autumn.  My family always loves traveling up and down the parkway in the various seasons - mostly at my urging.  There are just so many beautiful images-- sky, trees, bushes, the mountains etc.  Also, each time we go, the mountains have a different look or feel to them.  That's my challenge, to get the differences down on canvas.  Sometimes it's overwhelming trying to caputure all of the different color in a scene like this, but I enjoy reliving the day while trying!
