We were riding our bikes in absolutely picturesque rural England. 

The view was often so perfect, it looked make believe! Thanks to my brother in law Rick,

 we were up and out by 8 - I rarely swing that on my own.

This is a study - a larger version is in the future.

I love to paint a house in front of the ocean or a river, but here is one behind the water! It”s so odd that some trees are in bloom and others haven’t even leafed out. This is a real orange/green composition, but the sky is the palest blue ever..

We sometimes go boating with my brother in law.

Being from a Chicago suburb with no boating experience I didn't get it at first.

But when we go floating down the Columbia there is nothing as peaceful!

 I believe this is the third time I've painted this building. I made a special trip back to photograph 

at 6 PM because I knew the side of the building would be on fire with the evening sun.
