Painting 7/30: "Summer Days"....a little behind schedule

"Summer Days"
6"x6"
Oil on Board
$175

I had to take a day off yesterday.  I was out of town overnight Monday and woke up with a TERRIBLE headache!!  I slept all day yesterday, so I didn't paint.  I'll either double up one day or extend this 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge to January 31st!  

Struggling with what to paint today, I went to the Daily Paintworks website.  I knew that every week the artists there post a challenge and this week's is painting summer.  Perfect since it is absolutely freezing here and everywhere else.  I hope this warms you up a bit.  It did me as it made me remember hot summer mornings, picking out watermelon and peaches at the Montgomery Curb Market.  

So, here's the 7th painting of the challenge...a challenge within a challenge.

I like this .... maybe because of the watermelons, a sure sign of summer! Beautifully painted.
