What lovely work! I can almost hear the string orchestra. What fun that it surprised you and wasn't an intentional series.

Your colors and work are really lovely. Purple is a constant, I see.

hi Virginia,
nice to hear from you again,

if it was intentional,i wouldn't have got this far! lol!

funny you should mention the purple...i want to use less of it,
it's like my grey...if in doubt,use purple...
i hope this is apparent in the summer version,wich has more cooler
colors...

thanks for popping in and taking the time to comment Wayne,
lots of appels this year,but the leaves haven't turned yet,have to be patience.
maybe it is not such a coincidence,
i like to paint the same scene under different circumstances...
