A Morning of Stillness Restores the Soul

Picture"Morning Stillness", oil, 9 x 12, available on Dailypaintworks.com auction starting bid $200
Early Sunday morning I met up with my painting buddy Patty at Bauer Park in Madison, CT. After scouting out the location on Wednesday morning, I knew I had to return soon. With two lily ponds, a cover bridge, sunflowers blooming in the garden, barns, and a white farm house ... you get the picture... beautiful scenes everywhere you turn.

The grass was still wet with morning dew and the only other folks we bumped into was a couple and their two dogs. 

One was  an older chocolate lab but the other was a funny breed I had never seen before..  a Plott Hound mixed with blood hound. The tiger-stripped fur, face of a lab yet short legs and long body just threw me for a loop. The dog's name is "Bo" and I found out very quickly that he and his brother were rescued from a Florida highway. A very happy, friendly dog was right at home sniffing the sent of my dog on my shoes and wagging his talk. He must have know we were talking about him.

So, back to this morning's painting. I knew I didn't have much time, I was racing the clock because the spot I chose at 8am was cool and comfortable behind the big tree on the right but by 9:30 it was shining right on me and warming me up. I finished up by 10:15 packed up, headed home, showered and made it to church by... well, a few minutes after 11. :) 
This painting will be up for auction on Dailypaintworks.com. If you'd like to bid on it please click here
