We’re Having a Heat Wave!!!

 

2010_0706sunset0020

Summers are so short, you need to enjoy each and every evening.  It’s just hard with humidity as high as 80%!  I tend to stay in the air conditioning!  But I do miss painting outside.  I haven’t done much this summer due to weather condiitons…but I have sketched.  Seeing sunsets like this makes me want to take out my pastels!  I think I may do that this weekend! 

This is one of my favorite scenes, the sunset over Freda Lake.  The bare branch on the left tree, close to the bottom is where the eagle sits and fishes.  He is there every day and it’s always amazing to see him! 

I hope the current hot wave does not keep you in too long—and everyone can get out and paint!
