Sunny Sunday and a work in progress

First off, thanks for all the lovely comments on my last post. 
Yesterday was pouring rain so I started a new painting.


Laying down some color
 

Starting to add detail
After a rainy Saturday it's a gloriously sunny Sunday here.  Everything seems fresh and clean.
 We are planning a little road trip to Target...sadly we don't have one here.  Hoping to get a bit of Christmas shopping done and then back home to work on the painting.
Happy Sunday!

    I love the way you captured the feeling of light in both your painting and photographs. You seem to have a green thumb too! Hope you got all your shopping done, and have a blessed Thanksgiving.
