Back to painting

Yesterday was a warm day and I sat down to paint a new landscape I had been wanting to paint for some time. After getting set up in blew the clouds and all my natural light left! OH well I did the basic painting with the little bit of light I had. I will finish this one when the sun wont hide from me.
Not everyone knows that I have been painting since 1973. I have sold and given away hundreds of my works over the years. I wont come close to calling myself a Master Artist but I can claim to be one of the cheapest. LOL. I have sold many of my landscapes for as little as $5.00. Many more than that I have given to my family. 
I don't paint for money but for the love of art. I love colors and I love to take Gods beauty and reproduce it on canvas. All I want to do is keep painting and the only way I can do this is to have the money to replace my supplies. When I have an art sale everyone ask me why do you sell your art so cheap? My answer is... to clear out my studio and get enough money to buy more canvas and paint. For the last 40+ years this has worked. Maybe someday when I am dead and gone I will become famous. LOL.
This morning we woke up to a temp in the 60's. Sherri and I were talking about the weather man and saying that he said it would rain last night. I could see no signs that it had and Sherri said she had not heard it raining. I guess they were wrong this time. I had no more got that out of my mouth when we heard the drops hitting the roof. How funny is that...all we had to do is mention that and it started raining...
