Beautiful Day on the Truckee 
 

 

Much of Randall's larger works are started in the field as a quick study and then brought

 back to the studio where larger pieces are then created. "The trick to doing this is to not lose

 sight of what the painting was all about when you stopped to paint it in the first place."

    "I prefer to paint the beauty of a hundred year old oak tree standing alone  

against a powerful, threatening cloudy sky... just one of many he has witnessed, or  

will witness in his long and solitude lifetime."

Last Month's instructor was Al Tofanelli  who currently teaches painting at the

Atelier aux Couleurs:  The Art Academy in Petaluma. He kindly filled in at the last minute.  Thanks, Al.  (And I know he had fun too!)

 Al led the group to see the color, the shapes and perspectives in nature. 

It was great to see what came out of it.  He's promised to do another this fall.

Thought it would be fun to see just a few of the pieces that have recently found a home with our clients.  Some never make it to the gallery walls, others you've seen and become attached to.   

Here they are for your viewing pleasure.
