Finally Fall

Here it is, end of October and we're just coming off 103 degree weather. Much cooler at last now that we are nearly at Halloween.

Closed up the cabin for winter, hoping for another good snowfall year.

Last full moon at the lake - smokey, cloudy:

Went to visit family in Humboldt. Terrible fires in Napa and Sonoma counties - Santa Rosa is a tragedy - all the smoke changed the timing of my visit. Did get to sit and look at the view from the house and get a little gouache done.

















King's Peak from Honeydew, 5"x7"


Back to Monday painting, Libby and I went to Paradise Camp. The River is completely dry, and sycamores are barely turning color.

Working hard to finish work for "The River's Journey" - we got good coverage in the PleinAir Today Newsletter, October 18th online newsletter: www.art@streamlinepublishinginc.com

"1 year, 6 women, 92 miles" is our tag-line. You can also get information from the Wildling Museum's website:
www.wildlingmuseum.org and of course our website: www.rose-compass.com

Some of the latest work for the project:












dry riverbed, Alisal bridge, gouache, 3"x10 3/4"


















yurt view, Cachuma lake, gouache, 3"x5"























flowers and bees, Lompoc, gouache, 4"x4"


I'll be showing a painting in the annual juried Santa Paula Art Museum "Art about Ag" show, opening on November 11.

And coming up in December, the annual "100 Grand" invitational holiday show at Sullivan-Goss, as well as the "5x5 invitational" at the Westmont Ridley-Tree Museum.
