Plein Air Painting

Alright so for this week I decided to draw the tree's that are in front of my house.
I decided to paint these four trees because I really think that it's cool and weird that only the short tree in the middle has chagened colors and the three taller trees are still green.

Sky

So I decided to paint the sun setting in the sky behind my house. So I there's a bay about I'd say 5 or more miles behind my house and just behind the bay there are mountains. So I figures that along with all the clouds in the sky that were turning that beautiful pink and orange that I'd paint the bay and mountains as well to make it look like a real sunset type painting.

Alright so I added in a few pictures into this post. The 1st picture is one that I found online but it was originally black and white. So after I added in some color I thought it looked really cool and that I wanted to use it. The 2nd pic is of my painting closer up and then the 3rd pic is of it farther away. It didn't really turn out as well as I thought because on the flowers and on the butterfly's wings the dots ended up mixing together a little. but I still think that it's awesome. :)

This is a cup that I found really interesting. So what I decided to do was make it some different shades and tints of blue. So the darker greenish blue is a table and then the background is then wall that was behind the cup while I was painting it but instead of having it be a beige-ish color I mad it light teal blue. :D

Grape vines :D
Alright so this is my Van Gogh painting it is Grape vines :D. Right so it didn't really turn out all Van Gogh-ish soooooo. But ya I personally Like my grape vines, even tho it didn't start out as grape vines, I wanted to make a pansy ... the flower, and well it didn't work so while getting a drink of grape juice I was like "GRAPE VINES" sooooo. They look awesome tho in my opinion.

Okay so this is a waterfall.(YAY) What I had in mind was that this was a huge waterfall looking over a forest that was surrounded in a purple mist.The dark purple is the mist and the light purple by the waterfall is the edge of the cliff. All the warm colors are mainly in the sky because the main purple mist didn't become as purple red as I wanted it to.
