312. Morning Glory

From last summer in Minnesota, - my sister's yard in the morning.
Sun and fog and puddles and those trees! Glorious!
That sister and I were up early to bring another sister to the Minneapolis airport.
We mourned her leaving with a little retail therapy, - Ikea, Target and Chick-Fil-A. :)

Yellow lawn chairs, just chillin'. :)

Spotted at the lovely Suttle Lodge on beautiful Suttle Lake in central Oregon.
This state is jammed-packed with gorgeous places, but for this Minnesota girl, nothing is so wonderful as a lake. Suttle Lake feels like home.

This is the Umpqua River Light, standing proud near the mouth of the Umpqua River on the southern Oregon coast. She's a beaut. I painted this one several years ago, and it's fun to see how my methods have changed.

Here's my 2013 version: 

Maybe I'll paint it again in six years. :)
