Golden Vines


We are so enjoying this Christmas season – celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ at a beautiful Christmas Eve service, getting together with family and friends for special events, and still anticipating our official Christmas Day on January 6! This year promises to be one of our larger family gatherings our house – Paul thinks there may be 24 – 11 grandchildren, their wonderful moms and dads, nephew and his girlfriend, and my sweet mom! We are so thankful for every one of them.

Our current weather forecast is for a winter storm with predictions of anywhere from 3 to 12 inches of snow accumulation, but my heart must be in a much sunnier place. My inspiration this week is a photo I’ve carried with me for several years. This painting, Golden Vines, is 11” x 15” on 300 lb. watercolor paper and captures rolling hills of vines resting in the late afternoon sun on a warm autumn day.
