'Song of Spring'

Oil 9 X 12

Day 13

I got to visit the backyard of Katie College,

and the Stoney Creek Iris Farm yesterday

for this painting. What a visual feast

for the eyes - I've never seen so many different

colors of iris. It was a beautiful, bright and sunny

morning - a perfect plein air day.

It was also nice to have a little painting companion,

a tiny kitten named 'Dizzy'. Her antics were enough

to keep me chuckling all morning. In the picture

below, she is eyeing up a piece of
a plant that was blowing in the breeze...and

getting ready to attack...
