Study, Lead Me On Trees When I’m outside to paint

When I’m outside to paint on beautiful days like this

That magical experience of having something flow through me is a feeling that I've only occasionally recaptured since

Study, Lead Me On Trees When I’m outside to paintVibrant fall foliage beckons around a forest road in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. When I go out to gather ideas for my paintings, I often try to get lost. Im always curious about what is around the next bend or what lies ahead after the next random turn. Sometimes, those impulse decisions lead to the best locations and ideas.
