It is Sunday and an "arctic front" is approaching from the west. Tomorrow night the predicted low is -4 degrees. Add to that winds gusting to 30 mph and the prediction is for wind chill as low as -50 on the mountain tops and -20 in the valleys. Time to hunker down and paint!!
Today's painting is a portrait of another one of my bears. I just realized that she is the only "female" bear in my collection! Hmmm.... that gives me something to think about this evening. <grin>
I really had fun painting "Miss Bear". In fact, I was enjoying myself so much, 3 hours slipped away unnoticed by the time I was finished. I've been trying to keep each painting to a limit of 2 hours, so this one was a bit "over budget". I think it shows, though. It's my favorite painting so far.
Thanks so much for stopping by. If you are also in the path of the "arctic front", I hope you stay safe and warm.
See you tomorrow!!
