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!
