I love my gardening shoes. They are plastic with bright red daisies scattered on them. They are so sturdy that I think they will outlast me! I look a bit like Minnie Mouse, with socks and skinny ankles - but there is no one to see me while I potter around in the sun.This sunny corner at the edge of the patio gives warm winter sun on even the coldest of clear days. Every midday in winter, this was Jack's favourite place to sit and muse with his eyes closed for an hour or so. It has become my favourite winter spot now, seeking the sun, like the goannas in my garden. This was my most difficult plein air to date, painted over two days, the same time each day. |
