A sunny morning

When I sat down to paint this morning, I was thinking 'What can I find to paint in this same scene?' And before I knew it I was painting and loving what I was doing. I'm finding it fascinating painting the same subject over and over, and one of the things I wanted to explore in doing this series is the ups and downs of getting to know a subject so closely. I figured there would be times when I would think there was nothing left to see, nothing new. But I think those times are the most important because you then start seeing things differently, more closely. I don't think this will show up in any obvious way in the painting itself, but I'm enjoying getting this close to the scene in front of me.
