I should have stopped about 20 minutes sooner. This painting looked GREAT in my head. I liked it at one point, but I messed around too much with the water. Honestly though, the experience of watching the light and changing reflections was just wonderful. Elizabeth Mowry taught me early on to appreciate the moment, the place, the memory. I have learned to slow down and I truly appreciate having this peaceful evening to paint.
