I take that as a big compliment. ;)
This is really nice. I love the sky reflection on the water, really ties the picture together.
Yeah, I didn't want to be tucked away from the family. Also, you can always sneak in a little painting time after meals. 😃
Thanks. I've been wanting to paint for a long time, so last year I decided to make it a habit. Have been really enjoying myself.
