Hi Jen. Indeed. The blessing of an unexpected impromptu walk this afternoon with a longtime friend whom I haven't seen for ages. And opportunities to paint. And realizing I like this painting in the above WIP stage better than where it later landed. All good!
Your poem is the exact walks I take with my daughter. The slippery mud clay, not the best recipe for my knee but nourishing none the less. Love those muted greens dancing with the bright blues!
What fun to have described your walks with your daughter as well as my own walk, Carol! Glad you like 'those muted greens dancing with the bright blues' here—I got delightfully absorbed in color mixing as I worked on this.
Thanks for your welcome feedback, Sheila—the O'Keefe reference, the feeling of a slight breeze, the cool and warm. Ahhh, lucky I am to have faithful followers cheering me along : )

Beautiful those small pieces of grass! Makes me feel like a small ant looking at the world! Wish you a beautiful weekend!
Simone, I love your ant-in-the-grass perspective with this painting! Thank you!
You tall grasses can't be ignored. O'Keeffe would be proud ;) I feel the slight breeze, cool treat in the warm sun. Ahhh. :)
