Well this dreary day did help me accomplish something small but I am pleased with the result.
I spent much of the day staring out into my backyard and did several paintings of a tree that I like when it rains, but none of it worked...had no feeling, well at least not what I was feeling about it anyway. So out came the rag and I just swept 4 hours off the canvas and jumped head in to this image from a photo a friend sent me. I think this took less than an hour.
What can I say? Guess the time staring out the window worked afterall. And I love painting skies.

This is my favorite too Cathyann. Whatever it took to get here was worth the results...bravo!
Very striking piece.
Dana, yes, I too feel the angst was worth it. Thank you. I think I may revisit this and see what I can do larger.
Vern, hi, and thanks for coming over and making me feel good!
Oh those wipe-offs can be painful and make one feel so incapable! This one you wound up with is wonderful, though...I love that glow on the horizon.
