Just a look back…this is a painting I did after the Namaste Series. I was still in love with sparkles and sprinkles but ran out of steam in the idea of symmetrical abstract shapes.  I longed for putting subject matter back in, so, I elaborated from my imagination on summer foliage.

It flowed and was fun..

So, speaking of summer foliage, I took a photo as we were in another neighborhood.  I was again intrigued by the light through the foliage.

The endless possibilities of interpreting the shapes of leaves, light and shadow.  It’s actually a little overwhelming..where do I start?  How do I choose between one design element an another?  Is it too late for another cup of coffee?

But I will soldier on. I may not make the best choices in it, but less than perfect choices are better than a blank piece of paper.
