Mostly got to paint with you, Annie, always good and I think our little foray onto the Tarr's backyard was a good exercise in deciding quickly scene & composition, setting up and putting paint down. Still gotta do a start w/ umber and add color sort a thingy. Fun to paint this and I think we both got some good things going.
Hope unpacking is going well. It is such an odd job. Some places I have just loved going into. I do have to laugh at a bit of advice I got from a navy captn's wife: if you haven't unboxed a carton in three weeks, good chance you don't really need anything in it. Bit while there is truth to that, not that many have the courage to flit things off easily.
Will wrangle with Rico tomorrow, fine enough, I have not ridden the beach in ever so many years. And with soft ands, inevitable falls should not be much to concern anyone. After that the old gray and the pintaloosa come to stay here for rations of grain & hay and perhaps light work to steady them up.
Anyway nice to paint quick quick into the evening gloom!
