# 172 Harvest Moon


With a 24 hour power outage, I had plenty of time to watch them moon last night. Oil 5.50" x 8.00". JLC

Hi Jon,
Your ability to capture the light of the moon is wonderful. I love the colors and how the painting seems so real - almost as if I were right there looking up at the moon. And beyond the dark woods under the starry sky, I am listening to the mysterious night sounds.

June, You write wonderfully, thank you for your feedback! I plan to do more night scenes; the clear crisp nights are "moon season" around here. JLC

Nice painting, I didn't think of painting darkness, good change of pace, bet it was a liitle different to paint too.

Now I know you didn't leave me off your blog roll on purpose so here is my link. Did I get you?
