 Greetings One and All!
       Hope everyone has dug out from that massive snow storm that covered the country a few days ago.  Good thing I love snow - what else could I do but love it?
     Anyway, as a respite from all the white stuff piled on the ground (and roof, and cars, and sidewalks etc)  I just finished a summertime painting  - full of sunshine and flowers and lots of greens.  You can almost feel the warm breeze just looking at it.  I have to admit it gives my eyes a rest to see summer colors instead of the winter whites.
    This is an actual garden in Australia - I guess it is summertime down under and the owner was kind enough to let me use her photograph as a reference for my painting.  Of course, I changed quite a few things so it wouldn't be an exact copy but it was just so appealing, I could not resist painting it.  Apparently, others felt the same way because I posted it on Facebook and received the most comments any painting of mine has ever received.  Any ideas for a title?
    I am getting excited about a major makeover on my website - the first major overhaul since it was  started.  When it is complete, I will be letting everyone know so you can check it out.
 
Please take a few minutes to check out my blogs - http://mainelymary.blogspot.com where a gynecological conundrum  from  the 4th century B.C. is discussed and http://thehavenofrest.blogspot.com where a Bible that no living person can read is revealed.
 
In the meantime,  keep warm while you paint -
 
Mary
