Our days are grey, yet mild here in Chicago, but we are entering the abyss of winter. I love warm weather and even all the promise of spring and summer when we start to see life emerge in our gardens. I am happy that I was able to paint this bright happy picture---so full of optimism for the future. The title explains so many parts of my life---the time when I am painting and certainly, the time when I am gardening, when I am with my family.
If you follow my journey, you know that I am most comfortable painting what I see. I don't see any flowers in my garden right now, so this was a long stretch for me. In today's art world, mark-making seems to be of immense focus, and I have trouble with that, wanting more to express myself with my paint and brush rather than scribbles. I guess I'll catch on with practice.
