marigold yellow

All Soul's Day is traditionally November 2. Also celebrated as El Dia de los Muertos when one of the customs is to decorate graves with lots of marigolds.

My offering today is a bit of a scan of my much larger painting. I am working on a series of sunflowers, with lots of yellows of all varieties.

This painting is in process, lots of work still going into the finish.

ginkgo yellow

Such a gorgeous fall day today. I went for 5 mile run with my faithful studio companion (mentioned in my previous post).

The Ginkgo tree has dropped all,

leaving a pool of melted butter on the ground.
