Oh my, I do believe today's painting is the exact opposite of yesterday's.  Yesterday's vibrated with implied movement.  Today is quiet and calm.  There was no sound as I painted today.  I blocked in some colors from an inspiration photograph of a garden.  A big area of potato vine,  some sort of low growing blue violet flower, a little water.  Very serene and peaceful today.

On the technical side: I wish I could claim that I painted all of tiny blue flowers.  Sorry, but no.  I worked with an oil pastel stick.  Those things can be quite fun.

I am happy…..
