After painting a linear church, I needed to bust loose with

something a little more wild and free. Like a field of coneflowers!

I'm going to be painting a lot of Christmas scenes in the coming days,

so I will probably go crazy with this kind of painting at least once a week.

Maybe call it my "Friday Diversion."

This kind of painting is wonderful because it's so full of texture.

It looks like a meadow of coneflowers from a distance - come up closer 

and all you see are little color notes and patterns. 

It's kind of cold and gloomy outside today and I have errands to run and

doctor's appointments, so I probably won't be doing any painting until

tonight.
