Backyard Cherrywood afternoon

late afternoon that I thought was pretty
dark and moody until I took it out of my
studio and photographed it outside.
I hope you are having the best Valentine's
Day ever, whether you have a special someone,
or you're being extra loving with family and
friends. I'll be thinking of you and sending
you hearts and flowers and super good wishes.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Have an enjoying-the-love-the-world-offers day.

I don't see anything here dark and moody, Barbara! It's beautifully painted and the colors, of course, are yummy. It looks like a very friendly place. There is still a lot of warmth in all of that blue!
Oh, I commented before I meant to. Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!!
Boy oh boy, I sure like this one! I just love it!

Happy Valentine's to you and your painting is delish!
Hi Melinda,
Thanks so much Melinda. I actually set the publishing date wrong and had to change it. I hope you are having a super Valentine's Day.

Hi Marcia,
Thank you. You are too sweet. I actually got on a bit of a role, doing inside plein air. I guess you'd have to call them demi air, or something. So first I did the front view, then the view out the kitchen window. So! I'm glad you like it. I do too.

Love this! And love your blog. Happy Valentine's Day Barbara! Lina
I love your paintings - all of them! They are so optimistic and cheery - I have a feeling they reflect the artist's attitude about life.
Hi Lina,

Happy, Happy Valentine's Day.

Beautiful colors and shapes; I love the trees' branches. A perfect little scene.
Happy Valentine's!
Hi Terri,
Thanks so much. I certainly want to have a positive attitude towards life. I believe it's a choice. Maybe it's not always possible, but it's definitely a goal. People like you make it easy to be happy.
Take care,
Barbara
I adore the rich colors in this. So beautiful! Hope you had a lovely and loving Valentine's Day! xoLiz
Another very cool painting. Again, I love the strong colors and dark lines.
Barbara, I have given you the "sunshine award". Come by my blog to pick it up.
This painting makes me happy just to look at it-- very nice.

Hi Liz,
I am blessed with a loving husband and family, and I did have a Happy Valentine's Day, except that I am worried about my mother's health.
Thanks for your kind wishes. They mean a lot to me.
Take care,

Hi Karen,
Thanks for your kind compliment,
and thanks so much for the award. It is a heavy marking week, so I am falling behind on my blogging. Please forgive me and know that I am deeply honoured that you would give me an award.

Hi Becky,
Thanks so much for the sunshine award. I will talk about it on my blog as soon as my marking at school
quiets down. This week is insanely hectic until Friday. I am thrilled that you have honoured me with this award. Once again thank you so much.
