April 26

 

I forgot what date today is and put 25 instead of 26 by mistake! However this colour note of some pansies will help when I come to do a larger painting of them before they are planted in a hanging basket. I like the little orange one on the far right. The background needs a lot of work, but at least I know what I'm aiming for.

I liked the arrangement of the outbuildings here and the surprising colours in the background. A little difficulty in resting my drawing board on the fence, but it was too windy for an easel !
