peaceful


oil on canvas 7x11"

spend some rainy hours over at the cowshed,
good thing about having a cold,you can't smell anything.
the light is constant all day,so peaceful...no rush,
the cows calmly munching away,happy to be inside
went home for lunch during the painting...

and a few peaceful hours by the river too...i'm trying to stop smoking,this is day four,it is so hard,all i think about is cigarettes,pure torture...

Very nice painting, Rob! I love the water! Your torture doesn't show. Good luck breaking the habit. It must be terribly hard to do.
