My lake, one of my favorite muses, dipped in fog. The color was so white this morning that the small nuances were very important. I chose to underpaint (watercolor) in pink and overpaint(pastel) in greens.
When painting it's quiet but in another way its wonderfully raucous. The bird songs are very complex and loud. I guess there are many more types of birds out there now. The fragrance from the flowering trees blows my mind.
I feel soooooo carefree!

Morning B,
It must feel good to be out from under the weight of preparation and reception for your show. I'll bet it was a grand success.
This painting definitely portrays the mood you've described. Always amazed at the knowledge and feeling you have for your paintings.
Be at peace for a while my friend,
PB
Peace and birdsongs. Exhale. Ahhh.....
Good evening PB,

Thanks about the painting. Can't wait to see your new ones.

Hi Sam...you are s right. exhale. maybe that's why I soak in the bird songs.
Somehow I think the fog ones are nearly almost my favorites. I love the understatedness.
You're right Jala, fog is simply a wonderful thing- it unifies and quiets. In the process all is understated.
