Rocky Mountain Winter, a 16x20 original landscape oil painting by western Colorado artist Barbara Churchley

It was a particular pleasure to paint this winter scene so typical of the Rockies. I have spent a lot time in the high country in all seasons, so I had many good memories to accompany me during the painting of this scene.

Approaching Storm, a 16x12 original oil painting by western Colorado artist, Barbara Churchley

“Approaching Storm” began as a demo in one of my galleries. I completed it in the studio with palette knife. I like the way the sky recedes into the horizon. This painting is sold, but to view more of my work, please visit my website at http://www.barbarachurchley.com or e-mail me at barbara@barbarachurchley.com

"Autumn in the Marshes" 18x18, an original oil landscape painting by western Colorado artist Barbara Churchley

Autumn in the Marshes is painted on cradled board that has been textured with modeling paste. I created this larger studio work from an “en plein air” pastel of Hart’s Basin. I really had a great time painting with red hues for this marsh scene. To view more of my work, please visit my website at http://www.barbarachurchley.com or e-mail me at barbara@barbarachurchley.com
