What should I paint today?

It’s cloudy and might rain, so I’m picking a view in my backyard, just a few feet from my house.

Got my composition worked out in a sketchy sketch. Let’s paint before the rain gets here!

Doesn’t look like much, but I’m establishing the lights and darks-as well as getting the composition on the board.

ok boys and girls! Sorry i didn’t get to take more photos while working. When I concentrate, I forget. Here’s today’s grey day painting:

Thanks all for joining me and all the encouragement…that was FUN!!! Have a great day!
