I knew today would be a red day but I wasn't sure what shape the red would be.  One thing about a daily painting - you have to make decisions quickly and move on with the painting process.  I think that's a fun exercise in the creative process.  So often we have too many options and it's hard to decide what to paint.  When you look at the clock and it's already 2:00 and you haven't started, you know you better get beyond the "thinking" and hit the painting phase!  Those other choices will be there after this one is done.  I decided to continue with the loose pallette knife style but to do a floral painting instead of a garden.  This piece is loaded with paint - lots of texture. 

This weekend we have visitors coming from Montana.  That's a good excuse to hang some more art, plant some real flowers, clean up the place and just "settle in" a bit more in this house.  Always great to have visitors to get things done! 

Here's to a great and beautiful weekend for all!
