Winter is over for the year. There will still be a surprise snow shower here and there and the occasional hail storm to cover the ground in white, but as far as the calendar and ground squirrels are concerned, it is over.
In my last post I mentioned a series looking at and through and out of my home's windows. I happen to live in a historic house steeped in 120+ years of history and occupants that itself happens to be surrounded by some of the most wild landscape in the lower 48. The end result is a hybrid of still life and landscape painting. The stability of the interior vs the ever changing exterior and the connected light quality of the two environments- the shelter needing the storm. A side note is that I also made my first attempt at floral painting. (Besides a dogwood in Yosemite a couple of years ago.)
