Sun in the yard

Painting of the day
15 cm x 15 cm / 5,9" x 5,9"
oil on canvas panel - Öl auf Malplatte - huile sur carton entoilé
sold - verkauft - vendu


I have not been able to paint over the last few days because I worked as a volunteer helper at the Music Festival our little town organizes every year. It’s loads of work, little sleep and great fun!
So I decided to post an older picture I painted several years ago. I think it goes well with the last ones I did although it has a different style.
I will probably not be posting any new work for the next two weeks as I am off to America on Thursday! I am going there for an important birthday and a big wedding with loads of family, and I presume there will not be enough time for painting. But I hope to take some interesting photographs that I can work from later. And I will certainly try to look at the DP gallery daily!
So long folks!

Thank you very much, Anne.
I'm hoping to do at least a few sketches during my trip. So there might be something posted even before I get back...
So long.

Liza Have a great trip. This piece is wonderful. A really dynamic vantage point, and terrific temperature, light and heat. Great!
