Still Standing


Finally the heat wave has broken and we are blessed with gorgeous weather!  As I arrived on scene, this fabulous ancient tree called me right in.  Twisted and contorted, it's branches told a story of many years spent standing in this spot.  I started laying in my darkest darks first, then put the lights in before they fled. The early color was stunning and I didn't want to lose it.  I think I worked a little too long on this one, finally making myself walk away!  It was so lovely standing in the shade - I could have stayed all day!  Such a welcome change from days of late!  Painting number 3118 in 3118 days.
