Every now and then during my painting time in Provence a dramatic rain shower will blow in over the mountains, and if the weather changes while we're in the studio, I have a dry place to observe (and try to keep pace) with the action.
I missed your posts while your laptop was down. I'm glad you're back. I love this little watercolor. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of your Provence paintings.
Thanks for your comment, Skizo. I do find travel inspiring--though I need to remember that I have storms coming over mountains here at home in Vermont, too, and that I should get out here more often to look at and paint a landscape that can too easily become familiar.

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".
