For anyone interested, I thought I would share with all what I've been working on.

At first glance I could have sworn I was looking at a photograph. The scene makes me wonder what lies beyond that turn ahead. Fantastic work, Wayne.

Very nice. I love it. I have some awesome photographs you might like to paint!

[Kehaulani]

That's a painting!? Man, nice chops.

If you care to, send them to my email.
I would much appreciate anything pleasing to the eye.

A little different kind of style for me, but Iiked the challenge of the out of focus background and very close up detail of the foreground!

I know of this one VERY WELL

But then, what is a farm without its FARM DOG:

And when not on the farm, well then there is hiking in Gatlinburg:

Ha, ha. She looks so familiar, as though I spent time with her, yet we have never met.

Or hiking up Canyon Road in Santa Fe;

But coming back home to Emily is the perfect ending to traveling:

Not too many people know the story behind this painting, Doc. The cold, snowy February morning I decided I should take advantage of the fresh snowfall and clear blue sky and take some reference photos. That was a Saturday. The following Monday someone asked me if I could do a painting of a winter farm scene. Who was that someone?

My reaction exactly.

Incredible paintings! I agree, I thought they were photographs!

WOW!!!

[BigDub]

There are elite artists who would not take kindly to a remark like, "your paintings look like photographs".

Not me, though. Ha, ha! Thanks!

trying to downsize these images with photoshop. let's see if this helps.
now, if you would like to look at a time-lapse video of most of my work on this painting, go to my facebook page, @Wayne R Mathisen and use the sound, too.

I will try to improve the quality and filming of these as this is my first one.

I took the reference photo while on a trip to Alaska in 2016.
It was somewhere along the route between Anchorage and Denali, taken either from the train or the bus back down to Seward. The scenery was nonstop and abundant.

Bob Ross could've done it in thirty minutes.
