Suddenly

Suddenly   watercolor and gouache   28 x 18

the falling sun came through the October skies, making the treeline sparkle like jewels.  This grand finale occurred just a half mile away from our home upon return from a week-long road trip to St. Louis.  I am just grateful that I was paying attention!

I am convinced that looking up and looking down should be added to our visual repertoires....looking straight ahead can be limiting.

There is no way to replicate the sparkling jewel tones I witnessed that day, at least for me.   But I tried, once again finding a perfect use for the handmade florescent watercolors made at Case for Making in San Francisco!

What a rush!
