October Glory is going to Canada

This painting was featured in a tree nursery magazine that circulates across the United States and Canada to tree growers. One of the Canadian tree growers purchased it!. I take that as a high compliment from a large tree growing company.  

The scene is from my home looking south.  The October Glory trees were grown originally here in the northwest by a local tree nursery and planted in our yard several years ago.  The colors used in this painting are the actual colors of those trees at sunset one evening in October.  It is wondrous to me how colorful our lives are when we take the time to look up and see what is right in our own backyards.  Lucky me.
