Your frosty painting makes me think fondly of last year when I dashed out with my canvas and made a few marks only to return indoors for the final strokes. I miss that now that I am doing studio abstracts. Especially now that we have a few blue birds checking out our bird houses. I am glad to see you are painting outside now and may break down and go out.
Thanks for commenting on my blog.

whatever you do (i paint mainly racingcars)it is ALWAYS good to get out of the studio and learn from nature,your studio work will benefit...
