This past weekend I went up to Murphy, NC to visit my parents. It was a very nice visit. We had beautiful Fall weather....crisp, clear and cold! We took a drive to a new development a few miles from the house. It's called the Sanctuary and it is a big deal!!! It is even being advertised on local Atlanta radio. It will be an enclave of million dollar estates on a mountain called Vance Mountain. If you have the opportunity to take a drive before they add the gate...then do! The views are AMAZING! I felt like I was up on the Blue Ridge Parkway ....the mountains seemed to go on forever. And to think this is just a few miles from my parent's house. I took lots of pictures for future paintings. Currently I am working on the painting posted here. This is my alcohol underpainting...I will attempt to work on it today and tonight at class. It is the road just below my parent's and sister's house. I loved the misty early morning light and the way it seemed to light up the autumn leaves.
