NATURE INSPIRES ART: Paintings by Tom Scheaffer


Mission Trails Regional Park. Oil painting by Tom Scheaffer

My brother Tom Scheaffer loves the outdoors and frequently hikes at Mission Trails Regional Park near his home in San Diego, California. (See his post from January 17, 2022.)

Fall colors at Mission Trails.

Tom is an excellent photographer and a talented artist. 
Some of his work was recently exhibited at the Maya Moon Collective in San Diego .

Art by Tom Scheaffer. Pastel and white glue on  black paper. The glue makes black lines when it dries.

A recent walk at Mission Trails to see the fall colors has inspired two new works, one in pastels and the other an oil painting. Each one captures the richness and subtlety of nature's palette. The black lines on the pastel drawing remind me of the paintings of the French artist, Georges Roualt.
