Morning Song



 I should have saved all the stages of this painting. In my original sketch the woman was wearing shorts. The shorts didn't have the right mood so I gave her leggings. The leggings felt like they needed something....that's how the shirt around her waist came about. Alas, she felt like she got her morning workout in and was enjoying the happy endorphins of getting the morning started right as she enjoys the sunrise glow over the lake.

Summer Visitor


 

The sounds of summer are starting to return. Songbirds that leave us for the cold month have started to arrive. Soon we will see open water and hear frogs and then...the best song of all - the Loon call will fill our ears with hope.  Green and blue and flowers a bloom will be here soon! The sleek loon will fish the waters and dazzle us with its perfect patterns and haunting sounds. I'm so excited!
