"A Walk Through the Woods IV" ~ 05/17/07 ~ A Painting A Day by Connie Tom

Sold!

Collection of Mary Montgomery ~ Seattle, WA




"A WALK THROUGH THE WOODS IV" is an original oil painting by Connie Tom. This beautiful work evokes memories for some of us who have walked through a familiar passage of woods many times, but on one morning.... when the sun has risen and sheds it's light through the woods, a whole other scene seems to present itself to us. The morning fog floating through the trees and as the light filters through the moisture in the fog, a whole prism of colors appear. Suddenly, this familiar passage takes on a new wonder before us as we walk forward refusing to miss the opportunity... to bathe ourselves in the beauty of the atmosphere surrounding us. I hope you enjoy this painting as much as I enjoyed painting it. ~Connie

Sold!

Collection of Whitney and Rosemarie Hodge ~ Vallejo, CA




"Reflections of Autumn VIII" ~ 04/24/07" It's a lovely autumn afternoon and these two canoeists are out under the autumn trees rowing up the river. I liked the idea of leaving the whole painting in view of the water. I liked the contrast between the reflections of the foliage which are somewhat blurry leaving the canoeist, the canoe and the trees standing out of the water distinct. ~Enjoy!

Reflections of Autumn VII ~ 02/13/07 ~ A Painting A Day by Connie Tom

SOLD!



"Reflections of Autumn VII" was fun to paint. I love autumn and I love to paint the reflections and movement in water. One reason I guess is that I love the bodies of water themselves. This is like standing at the water's edge and gazing down into the water to see the reflections of autumn leaves and some fallen leaves adrift in the moving water. ~Enjoy

Autumn Splendor II ~ 02/12/07 ~ A Painting A Day by Connie Tom

SOLD!



"Autumn Splendor II" was a tedious yet delight to do. To get the autumn colors to graduate from the shade to the light was the challenge. I apologize again for my photography skills. There's a glare from the easel light on the upper part of the painting that just isn't there in the actual painting. I hope you'll read my feedback to see how former customers are responding after they receive their paintings. And I also hope you enjoy this one as much as I enjoyed painting it! ~Connie
