Summer Sunday

One morning as I left the studio where I had been working on a painting, I captured this image.

The amount of lush green, the water covered with petals, and the light streaming in made me smile for Summer.
I want to paint this image in all it's glory. Things like this make me full of love for nature and for Summer Sundays to have a moment to reflect, give thanks and realize the beauty around me. Enjoy your Summer Sunday.

early morning

The early morning light is the most wonderful light. Ushering in a leisurely morning walk, the warmth of the golden light, a fresh start to the day. I have always been an early riser and now that it is dark by five o'clock, I become anxious for the morning light to rise.

Are you an early morning person or a night owl?

Sunday shelf

Welcome to my Sunday shelf. I have a shelf in my home which holds books, framed photos and a variety of objects. This is a small landscape that I painted in acrylic several years ago on louan mahagony panel. It has been on my shelf and never framed.

I look forward to visiting this island again, and painting a small collection for my shelf. Carrying these thin panels and just a paint box of acrylics is easy and carefree. Try it on your next trip.

What is on your Sunday shelf?
