It was a big working day today. Almost finished a painting, got a large canvas
double gessoed (the gesso used by the manufacturer sheds paint), did some
planning, organized some finances, and walked 10,000 steps in the rain.

It's been super cold here, so one effect of the rain, was it was way warmer.
It's so Canadian to be excited about 5 degrees Celsius (41 Fahrenheit),
but we were.
but we were.
I found a point of view I like in a former post about rain. Here it is:
"A friend said that people assume that when
we artists paint a grey sky, or a rain filled image that
we are gloomy. But no. Because we love the look
of rain too! Landscape painters love weather and
change, and find beauty in nature's variety.
This painting -- Rain Ahead -- captures the amazing rain my
husband and I saw driving home to Toronto from Ottawa on our
anniversary weekend in 2017."
Have a loving your life day.
