Skywatch Friday: Sunset at Belle Isle






Two sunsets from Belle Isle and a sky from Detroit Metrobeach. And my latest painting, which is an alley in Piran, Slovenia. The "clouds" in the Belle Isle shot were all smoke.

    Very pretty painting, Mary. The sun in the photos seems to warm up the pond...

    Your paintings are so joyous and colorful - no morose musings for you. Love the trees in the first photo - all the photos are gorgeous.

    Such beautiful photos. It's hard to decide which I like best. And your painting, WOW. Now that says spring, sunshine, warmth and fun.

    I thought you quit smoking! ;-))

    I like both the sunsets and the city shot, but I like your painting the best; it is so warm and joyful!

    Thank you all! I am deep into working on the Fellowship application now, so I am way behind, staying up past midnight to catch up a little.

    Need to go to bed though.

    Thanks for your kindness. Not all my art is cheery, though!!!

    I smoked half a cigarette nce, Jacob, or maybe a quarter of one--an it tasted bad and I never smoked another. But our city and our country smoke too much. :-(

    I love that first shot, and I love your painting...which do I like best? It is too hard to choose.
