Bukowski Painting- Studio Wall

This is a view of a studio I have at Bethany Lutheran College.  I am waiting for spring to erupt and in the meantime, I am pushing the scale of the garden paintings.  The larger work is currently in progress.  It used to be a horizontal painting, but it wasn't going anywhere.  I flipped it upright and brought in the motif of the Russian Sage in the foreground that is in many of my recent paintings.  I like the sweeping space in the foreground and the pure paint.   The stack to the right are some of last summer's efforts.  The scale allows more play with color and build up with paint.
