Abell to Art: Impressionist Paintings

The richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration.      Claude Monet   

Ever wonder if you are on the right path?  Is this the way to go?

If you are like most folks, at one time or another in your life you've had that very question.

Difficult decisions to consider?

Maybe your own backyard provides the respite you seek or even a golf course when you also need the break being outside offers.

Whatever it is you may be contemplating, you likely have your own go-to place, unique to you to work through your thoughts.

Back on the path.....the painting featured is a really metaphor for the uncertainties in life.

All were inspired by the pathways throughout a favorite place of mine, the State Botanical Garden of Georgia.  Not only does this environment provide countless natural inspiration, but somehow after a long walk my creative insight is clearer.

A number of paintings of mine have been directly influenced by the unique filtered light through the trees in the garden.  Capturing the glow of the sunlight between the branches is both fun and challenging.  Just walking along the varied paths is energizing and inspirational.  In the spring of the year, color is everywhere.

After a visit to the State Botanical Garden, refreshed and renewed, I usually can't wait to get back to painting!   Hope your place offers the same kind of inspiration for you.
