Yesterday I went out  to the studio to work on organizing it, but once I got there this painting asked to be finished. I am really excited about this one! I wish I had a better photo for you. I put all my skills into the painting. The sky is luminous and the water has a neat homage to Monet and in between I was going for a moving grasses feeling with some pallet knife scrumbling where the sky and grass meet (and to accentuate the hen, who is the subtle star of the show).

Any title suggestions? I was thinking “Blue Skies”, as in “only blue skies ahead”, but I’m not sure.
