Last year was my first time in Rosebud, and this place caught my eye when I didn't have enough time to paint it! I was so happy to see this place when I drove into Rosebud for today's competition, because NOW was my chance at it! I arrived early to hopefully finish before the rain moved in. Well, that didn't happen, but at least I had shelter nearby to duck under. I have lately been taking more time to really study what I see, before laying paint. Stepping back, squinting and looking, I often see values and colors that I don't see at first glance. I love when a painting comes together, even in a cold rain - and it won an award, too! Painting number 3200 in 3200 days.
