Moving day was today. I have had to say farewell to the chickens and dogs and the wonderful owners of the pets.

What dear friends I am blessed with!

Of course, I am slow in taking a photo today, so in the evening light, my latest painting looks alive with fire. It is not nearly as brilliant as this jpeg suggests, and I hope to add colors for the dye vats tomorrow. I also hope to take a daylight photo. I have all the under-painting completed, so let the colors begin to fly!

I have moved back to my lovely Lake House retreat with amazingly kind friends, and I am looking forward to finishing up the series of Moroccan paintings before my next assignment.
