371. Night Light

Every so often, baseball or basketball brings us through the farming community of Tillamook on the Oregon coast. I love seeing the pastures, fields, and barns; it reminds me of Minnesota. The cheese curds at the Tillamook Creamery are pretty great, too.

This Tillamook barn was all tucked when I drove by after a baseball game last spring.
Those lights just pulled me in, and I really enjoyed painting this sleepy little scene. 

Enjoy!

I was recently introduced to Lego flowers, and I had so much fun building a brick bouquet!
I'm in awe of the people who design things like this. So cool!
Anyway, just wanted to try to capture a couple of blooms in paint.
Enjoy!
