I always feel as if I'm right there in the middle of things with you, and they bring back such sweet memories of simple times. I'm also a huge rain-lover, have been from day 1 when I was born in New Orleans where it rained constantly. Nearly every day that it rains here, I call my English friend Jayne and we rejoice in the nasty weather! I can feel the wet weather come through in this piece, and it makes me happy!Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01287736240378506517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-88511479231187679982013-08-04T09:40:07.001-06:002013-08-04T09:40:07.001-06:00I really like the composition of this one and the ...I really like the composition of this one and the ratio of color to white.

Lovely painting as usual. I like how you are experimenting with watercolors and fracturing. It looks great. I love how you are creating negative and positive spaces in this one, and how the theme make a color blocking effect.Roger Åkessonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15198884418075720705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-30572347660946126272013-08-03T14:45:17.310-06:002013-08-03T14:45:17.310-06:00Her jacket under the umbrella looks very wet, and ...Her jacket under the umbrella looks very wet, and the watermelons under the canopy are covered with that magic, misty wet blanket...<br />Wonderful...Nicolas Bouteneffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08826504748022012407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-88809359553823950682013-08-03T12:56:01.329-06:002013-08-03T12:56:01.329-06:00I could really feel the rainy and muted atmosphere...I could really feel the rainy and muted atmosphere here Julie.

I've not a clue but I sure do love the gray skies. I wouldn't want to be in that guy's shoes either.

This is a nice one too. And yes, it does rain in CA in the summer. It's odd but it happens especially if you are near the coast or in the Sierras. The light is very different as you noted and makes the entire landscape so much more saturated in color (seems to me). Wonder what happened to the husband???LOL!Libby Fifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13532162740012986996noreply@blogger.com
