Really like the looseness and reflected light in this one. who would have thought a little 4x4 would look so BIG!

thanks frank
its amazing how every once in a while for some unknown reason and out of nowhere you do one thats right, isnt it? i did the second one of the lemon slices and they didnt come out 1/10 as nice. what the *(&^&*&*( happened? jeez i just moved them around a bit! if they all came out real well we'd probably get bored and quit wouldnt we.
i loved hearing about you guys painting in the rain. thats what REAL plein air painters do. i want to split the house with you next year if you have an opening. seriously! you guys are about painting!
p.s. im gonna check out that brand of umbrella too. looks sturdy and i like that its tall so you dont have to duck under it. preesh the post today.
