Susan Neese McKinney Ramblings

I really enjoyed painting this yesterday.    The weather was perfect, and with a little rain the day before, everything was sparkling clean.     This was at the Japanese Stroll Garden, Springfield Botanical Garden, Springfield, MO.    I added just a few little touches this afternoon, and it's ready to sign after it drys a little.    Here's the photo taken on site, and a little closer view.  

April has rang in with a busy art week.    Tuesday I took 3 paintings for the Springfield Plein Air groups show at "The Library Center", in Springfield, MO.   I'll post a photo.    Then Friday is Potluck with the group.     Also on Friday the Lost & Found Grief Center of the Ozarks requested one of my paintings for their "Operazzi",~~Songs of Hope~~ event.    Music and food to bring awareness to their important cause.    My painting and others will be on display for sale with a portion of the proceeds going to the SRO Lyric Theatre and the Grief Center.   I'm honored to be a small part of their event.
