First Light

First Light
Oil on panel, 6x6

Today is our 30th wedding anniversary.  Hard to be believe 30 years have flown by in the blink of an eye.  Our lives have been rich with love, laughter, 5 children, 2 grandsons (so far), and so much more - and I still feel this is only the beginning!  On this special day, I am painting a quick and small 6x6 inch painting of the dreamy morning light as it first shows it's color.  Feeling impressionistic today, I am minimizing the details.   I am using some loose brushwork, in fact the whole thing was painted with a 1/2 inch bristle brush - a rather shaggy one at that!  Off to enjoy the rest of the evening - this is painting number 166 in as many days :)
