Fall Landscape Painting, Daily Painting, "Maple Glow" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil

We have just returned from several weeks in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina.  Everyday I would run to the door as soon as the sun peeked over the mountain to see how the beautiful fall colors had intensified over night. I was not disappointed.

The sun was back lighting a red maple, giving it a beautiful glow.  I tried to duplicate the colors without falling into the "too garish" trap.

It was a lovely trip, but now I am home and the holidays are looming in the future.  Lots to do with little time available.  I need to take a few deep breaths and all will turn out okay.
