I realise that my creative moods are really affected by my environment and the weather.  Yesterday was a really bad weather day - cold, wet, windy and freezing.  Not my favourite!!  In the afternoon we got the paints out ... the boys (who are here for a couple of days) really got into it - paint everywhere.  I joined their enthusiasm.  So, today you are being treated to some work that I did a few weeks ago.  This morning the sun is again shining...so hopefully a better day!
