'Scent of Summer'
24 x 30 Acrylic on Canvas
The Painting: Summer fun with this one. Basic acrylic layering of colors and a faceted look of values as the layers compiled together.
The Thought: Terry is doing better today. The Doctor has him keeping his leg elevated and iced and advil of course. My hip is much better and only my knee is a bit messed up. No sailing yesterday and maybe not today. Have to see. Today is shipping day for work going out. I have books going to the UK, a painting to the UK, pieces to Canada, China, New York, Georgia, Louisiana, and Missouri.
My three books arrived for my commission work from LULU and they are beautiful. For those of you that do not know, for my larger commission paintings I put together a beautiful hard back book of the painting from sketches to finish. They arrive here from LULU, I sign them and they either ship with the painting or they go a few weeks after. My collectors love the books as much as they do the painting.
Summer brings heat here in Texas and life tries to slow down. We picked up some Lantana, some Moss Roses and a new crepe myrtle tree at Lowe's today and tomorrow morning we will plant them. I also found two beautiful violets that made it home too! In the summer you truly have to keep at work watering your trees, outdoor plants, your yard etc. If you don't, what happens?
It dies.
You have to work on that same relationship with God or it dies. Takes two to have a relationship and we are the ones missing from it, not Him.
