Very nice painting, Shirley.

It's so great to be able to get out a bit more, you just can't beat en-plein-air painting in my book, but it's not for everyone. This is a lovely, lively and spontaneous piece Shirley, it has an exciting urgency to it.

Well thank you very much for such positive comments! The thing I will do next week is take some old cut-up credit cards with me to get little marks.

First go with my new box easel, a little canvas and some acrylics. Plenty of room for improvement, but so nice to be out painting in the open air yesterday.
