Traveling Days



Last glimmers of summer, caught a few weeks ago while strolling through Longwood gardens. I love the symmetry of these flowers. Today, driving up to Pennsylvania all the trees were an orange red and some so yellow that they almost glowed. Most of the fields are empty now with one here and there still having some dried corn. In one field I saw about a hundred black birds which took flight just as we were passing by. It looked as if someone had flung a shawl of black lace into the sky. Which reminds me of the black cows I saw standing in an orange field while a pure white cat was creeping about the bushes.



Did another watercolor this time of a sunset over a lake. It reminds me of the Once and Future King in some ways. Like a white horse should just come strolling through the frame at any moment. I really love watercolor there is something so airy about this medium, it is as if one were painting with light.
