Sunrise 8

A drizzly morning and another wet painting. I appreciated the simplicity of the foggy beachscape this morning; it felt calming and peaceful....quite different from the fire and briliance of last week's sunrises. Trying to capture those extreme scenes left me feeling a little frantic.

I crave these cool, drizzley days in early spring. They remind me of my time living in the Pacific Northwest. On days like this it feels good to allow for a little melancholy, a little indoor quiet time with too many mugs of coffee.... maybe even a nap.
