There are some days where chaos is the daily menu and you just have to flow with it. I had an appointment in the morning so I could go to my painting class in the afternoon. Well, that appointment turned into a hurry-up-and-wait-for-a-phone-call situation. Solution? Watercolor!
This painting is loosely based on a photograph I took while out at the settling ponds in Ventura. In California, “Spring” happens after any rainstorm. The brown grasses green, trees bud, flowers bloom. It’s the nature of the beast. We had rain yesterday and have another big storm coming in next week. In the days before my visit to the settling ponds, we had a lot of rain, and the result is this lovely little bit of trees and grass. Hard to believe this is within walking distance to the beach!
I did a bit of post in LR on the photo, but it does catch the sense of Spring, I think.
Watercolor, Millford paper, 9×12.

Maybe you were meant to have a long hold on the phone because that painting is simply beautiful!
Thanks, Anne! And it was more of series of “wait for us to call you”!
Well, that worked to your advantage too!
