Fall Grasses


The season is changing.  I looked out the studio window the other morning and the hills were golden.  By the afternoon, the same day, green sprigs of new grass were shooting to the sky.  Just like that I was now living in a different place.  It is a beautiful time of  year and there seems to be a new flow of energy in the landscape.  I am supposed to be painting pigs but instead I picked up the palette knife and had a little more play time.  I really need to get back to work.  I know, such fun work.  No matter, it was, "A Painting Day".

Your patterned grasses are quite beautiful and I loved your tribute to Ann.

The simplicity of stroke and the texture are fabulous. Can't wait to see the pigs soon, too :)
