End of Summer

At the end of Summer there is a quiet stillness in the air around Pines Lake. 
The air is cooler, kids go back to school, and summer vacations are fond memories. 
Soon the trees will turn brilliant shades of red and gold. 
 
This is the view from our backyard and today I felt compelled to capture it on canvas. Perhaps when the trees are bare and the ground is frozen, this will be a warm reminder of summers past.

This is a little friend I came across while I was at the Laurelwood Arboretum here in NJ. It was the beginning of the season, many of the beautiful varieties of plants and flowers were in bloom and I wanted to be sure to get enough photos to use as references for when I paint. I had forgotten I had these pictures, (which happens alot lately!), so I'm glad I discovered them again. It's amazing what I find when I go through my computer! Lots of photos of friends and family and some really nice memories.

Today's rain seemed to be a good time to paint Sunny Daze. The day started out rather bleak, but when I finished my sunflowers, the sun came out and now we have a sunny day, which put me in a sunny daze!
