To Lie Sometimes Under Trees ~ Sold

"Rest is not idleness,

and to lie sometimes

on the grass under trees on a sunny day,

listening to the murmur of the water,

or watching the clouds float across the sky,

is by no means a waste of time." 

~ J. Lubbock

Ancient Sequoia Trees is #9 of my 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge

inspired by quotes about trees.

Thanks again to everyone for your feedback and enthusiasm for these small watercolors on Yupo paper! I am enjoying working on this synthetic paper, because I never really know how it will turn out. I put my marks down in ink first and then just try to go with the flow, letting happy accidents happen as they may.  Yupo pushes me beyond my comfort zone and makes me constantly stretch my skills.  I'm excited knowing that I'll be learning something new each and every day during this 30 in 30 journey.

And YOU help keep me focused.

You've given me the feeling that I'm on a good course with these

little trees and for that, I am truly grateful.

Thank you for stopping by!

An Old Acquaintance ~ SOLD

"I frequently tramped eight or ten miles
through the deepest snow to keep
an appointment with a beech tree,
a yellow birch or an old acquaintance
among the pines."
