Winter is here!



Today I am actually enjoying the winter weather, I have a cup of Raspberry Cocoa near at hand, and an open day, with noting to do, how wonderful life is. The painting above is one I did Plein-aire, believe it or not! I went out to the Guadalupe river with a group of friends to paint, the leaves had fallen and all was grey/brown, I have a need for color, so I went searching for a beautiful bare tree and found this white sycamore along the bank. Even though the leaves are gone, the limbs were so lovely, and the aura of its life was apparent in it's form, so I painted what was not there, and this is where I arrived.
