Morning Breaks (study), L. Daniel, 6 x 12, SOLD
This is the image I ended up painting again in the larger format. I have been on a wide and skinny jag and this angle seemed to suit that need perfectly! What I really love is how the church, though still prominent, blends into the countryside and meshes with the humbler buildings next to it. It establishes a certain connectedness between the earthly and the spiritual.
ALSO... I am so very proud to announce a newly updated, searchable Daily Paintworks, the online gallery I am part of with 11 other incredibly talented artists. You can now search by Artist, Title, Keywords, and even Colors through the over 4,000 paintings on the site. It is inspirational to be able to see so many paintings at a time and it's really easy to navigate.

Ciao Graziano
Laurel, another stunning painting! Looking forward to see what you are doing for the upcoming show.
wow. The balance of tone, color and compostion is absolutely striking. pure joy, Laurel.
This is just beautiful Laurel! I love the wide and skinny format and you do it so well!
I really like this one Laurel. Great composition.
There are so many great things about this painting! I love it. Great job Laurel.
Wow is right. Beautiful composition, amazingly rendered. Love the brighter warm light coming from down near the horizon. And the fineness of the spire and wires is fabulous.
Okay, I love these church paintings so much, but one of the things I am fascinated with both in your work lately and as an idea I have for my own photography, is the recurrence of telephone lines. They fascinate me with the way they recede visually but go on and on endlessly all across the country. Their shape kind of fascinates me as well. I have a little ongoing side project of photographing scallops and I continually want to find just the right setting to photograph telephone lines for this project.
Anyway, love it!
Love you, Erin :)
Just beautiful Laurel!
Love this, Laurel!
I love this painting. It really does have a wonderful spiritual feel. There's MEANING in this painting. Bravo!
Beautiful paintings. I love the directness of of your brushwork and the crisp, clean look of your colors. This painting in particular has a wonderful vantage point, and is perfect for the extra wide format. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
Really nicely done, Laurel!!
I like the format.
Simplicity, depth, and warmth are what I base my favorites on, and yours are always perfect.
