"The Firmament" ~ 28"h x 22"w Original Oil Painting by Connie Tom

Sometimes when I just want to get away from the busy-ness of life, I try to imagine myself somewhere far away from cities and crowded places. Somewhere where I can enjoy the quietness, sometimes in the mountains with water and fresh country air where nature is undisturbed. Waterfalls are mezmerizing to me. To feel the cool mist upon your skin.... Hear the rippling of the water and splash of the waterfall? Now that's living! I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed painting it. ~ Connie

"Branson Hills Autumn" ~ 12"x9" A Painting a Day Hudson River School Mountain Landscapes by Connie Tom

This is an original oil painting by Missouri artist Connie Tom picturing the beginning of autumn in the hills of Branson. The sun is shining through the trees. It's after a shower and the colors seem to come alive. The road entering at the bottom of the picture seems to invite the viewer into the picture. It would be nice to take a walk through the Ozark Hills and enjoy the sun shining on you, listening to all the little woodland animals and birds in the trees and enjoy the brilliant colors of autumn. With all the detail and beautiful colors it has a very cheerful feel to it.
~ Enjoy!
