Study, The Rolling Hills of Marfa

Study, The Rolling Hills of Marfa, 8x10, study, palette knife, oil on panel, $450, framed,  landscape

There is a ranch road just west of Marfa. You can take it straight to the border, or close to it. You actually have to go a few extra miles east to Presidio to make a legal crossing. The only problem is that it isn't paved and a 4x4 is a must. Luckily the new paint mobile has all of those bases covered. It is in the top 5 of drives I have ever taken. The scenery is unadulterated and WILD! During the 4 hour, 54 mile drive was saw only one other vehicle and that was pretty shocking. We did part of the drive again before we left.

Nocturne, Full Moon in Marfa

Full Moon in Marfa, nocturne, study, oil on InnerGlow panel, palette knife,
11x14, $625 framed, transportation, trailer

Great full moon while we were in Marfa, TX. This is a color study for a larger 30x40 I would like to do of this scene. If you ever get a chance to go to Marfa, stay at El Cosmico. It is an experience you won't soon forget!

Another quick 5x7 study. I almost enjoy playing more that making a serious painting. This was done with a nocturne in mind with pthalo blue and cad orange

Grayton Beach FL

I am going to catch you up on my latest obsession... 5x7in paintings done on my Guerrilla thumb box. My goal is to have 365 of these by the end if the year. I'm not trying to do one a day, some days I do more... Some days less. Takes some pressure off. Most are done Plein air, but some from my phone. It's a great size, I can do a great little study in 30 minutes or less... In the car, on the beach or on the sofa! They do not interfere with larger studio work.

None of these will be for sale. If you are interested in a large piece inspired by one of these studies, please email me at rdboyd2@mac.com

In the Moonlight

In the Moonlight, 11x14in, oil on panel, NFS, study, nocturne, landscape

My first plein air nocturne done with Roger and Greg. Millie Gosch and Craig Reynolds were also brave enough to join us. A little blue, but Thats what I picked up... just blue and white. I knew I could only focus on the big shapes. I enjoyed this more than any painting I have done with the sun up. Again, if you are interested in a larger piece based on this, let me know.
