A cup of tea and a window full of trees entertains me.

Sunshine splashes yellow-orange light on the aspen. Spruce stand back and don’t get involved.
Umber-cerulean and purple in the shadows. Many colors in the shadow.

Graceful branches reach to the sky.

Reddish wintery hue of trees in the distance. Hard to get that color right. It shimmers as a reddish-purple-orange tint, totally dependent on what’s around it.

Hill and Sky
Cerulean blue hill plays with the yellowish sky color at the horizon. Melodic and peaceful. The sky becomes deeper blue higher and higher. More red and less yellow in the blue.

Colors reveal themselves. The subtleties become obvious.
The landscape is alive.
Colors dance with possibilities.
I want to capture them in paint.
