Harvest Moon

"Harvest Moon" Acrylic on 18"w x 18"h canvas

There is usually one painting that stands out in a show ... a painting that says 'here .. look at me!' and this is the one. The moon is centered in the composition and to be honest I didn't like this painting as I was working on it. But as it drew near to completion, the softness of the elements in this landscape gave me that warm fuzzy feeling inside and I was glad I pushed through and finished it. When there is a full moon, it grabs your attention, and this piece does just that.

This painting is part of my Awesome Autumn show at Beaner's Central Coffeehouse which runs throughout the month of September 2012.
