Walk One Hundred and Ninety-Six – Another bench drawing

A more overcast misty day today. Xavier quote of the day when we noticed a tree that had lost nearly all of its leaves – ‘That tree looks naked’.

I like your bench paintings, the autumn colours look wonderful. A quick drop in before heading off for the ferry, got it all done and packed and now waiting! I am thinking of coming to Wales next year as my pony people were charming and have invited me, they live beneath Snowden and near Carnaefon(sp!!)

Hi Julie,

You have got to love those beautiful things that little people say! When my two were young I kept a hand written diary of their doings and sayings and even now they are treasured by them and often read. I love your paintings - how big are they?

Lovely composition - the contrasting line directions. I wish I had noted the children's funny thoughts. The best one I remember was "Next time we have hot rain, I'll have another bath" from Finnian at about 3.

Sweet painting -- I love the foggy and misty but bright colors and the way you kept the separation by light between the two rows of trees.
