Painting days...

Tom and I headed to the Wildbrumby Schnapps Distillery for a yummy lunch today and I came home totally inspired. 


Along with producing yummy schnapps the owner Brad Spalding is a fabulous painter. His paintings capture skiers, in bright yellow jackets, in a fun and abstract way. I recommend going for a visit and seeing the distillery and artwork for yourself.

As soon as I got home I grabbed my oils and tried to capture the mountains in my own personal style.
