The valley is alive with bright green hills and the creek is like a river with water rushing and meandering along the road that we take to town. It seems as if everything is alive and thankful for the sunshine giving warmth to the landscape. Spring is the season for renewal and as always it is most welcomed. It has been, 

"A Painting Day".

A Painting Day - River Grass - Ruth Andre

"River Grass"

Triptych

24"x18"x2" Oil and Mixed Media on Panel

by Ruth Andre

I recently started reading the book, "Claude and Camille" by Stephanie Cowell. There was a quote by Claude Monet in the forward of the book that made me think about painting and how some things are just so elusive when trying to paint them and still an artist tries. 

“I have so much fire in me and so many plans.  I always want the impossible.  Take clear water with grass waving at the bottom,  It’s wonderful to look at, but to try to paint it is enough to make one insane.”  Claude Monet

It has been, "A Painting Day".

Moonlight Reflections Revisited - Ruth Andre

"Moonlight Reflections"

8x8x1.5 inches, oil-wax on panel

by Ruth Andre

The studio work continues getting panels ready to paint and as I was taking a break a small study called out for a change. The painting was subtle but as I spent time with it in the studio it seemed to need more. I felt a need for a more complex structure. I wanted the painting to feel of drifting water on a moonlight night. As the water drifts by it has been, "A Painting Day".
