The guest with paintbrushes~

making sketches at the farm...

The colors today were glorious... I could hardly wait to get outside, but first... I had to clean my palette, get my sketchbook, charge the battery in my camera, eat lunch, download my last pictures, check my email, change the laundry, get long underwear on and extra socks...

phew, im ready....

I hardly knew what to do- so many ideas swirling around in the snow and the sun laughing and dancing and teasing me with their potential....

I even laughed as the paint box slipped out of my hands and landed upside down in the snow...
