This one is a plein air from yesterday'sadventure to Botanical Beach Park.
It was a gorgeous day of
warm sunshine and fresh ocean air!
On the drive home, just when I thought
the day couldn't possibly get any more glorious
and even before I'd seen the brilliant orange sunset,
I had the good fortune
to see a Northern Pygmy - Owl.
(Seeing a Pygmy - Owl and seeing a movie in 3 - D
are two things that I have experienced
this month that have long been on my
large list of things that I have my heart set on
experiencing in this life time
- I'm having a good month and a good life!)

Oh, you ARE having a great month and life! A Northern Pygmy Owl, 3-D movie, plein air painting and fabulous environment?! Oh, yeah. Linnyland is good.
ReplyDeleteThis painting says that in a confident way.
These are very good signs that you're going to have a fabulous 2010 Linny!
ReplyDeleteLovely composition, yep sounds like all is well on your end. So glad to hear it!
ReplyDeleteSo interesting to see nature executed in unexpected colours...the overall warm tones work well here. Lovely that you can get out and plein air...life on the west coast has it's many advantages, yes? (I'm looking out my studio window and watching the snow.)
ReplyDeleteI love your work- so much in fact- i gave you the SUNSHINE AWARD!
