Landscape painting

This summer I decided to tackle painting landscapes. I wanted to paint from my imagination rather than copy a photo or sit outside in the heat (ugh) and paint what I saw. Most of what I painted were small studies, about 8" square which really doesn't support the vastness of the landscape imagery. I was shooting myself in the foot with this approach. I did about 10 paintings and then kept just this one. The rest went to Goodwill, without regret. 
Painted edges make it ready to hang.
These Coneflowers are from my garden, their second summer. The start out pinky red, then turn red and later brick red. They stay in bloom for a month at least. Just a great plant. I'm saving seeds so I can have them all over my garden.
