Ahh the first to leave a comment.... :) I love Midsummer. It is a very important event for Scandinavian people. this is my moment, long days hot temperatures....... Your painting is all of that it is just perfect!
Last evening I was late getting out to water my newly planted Ginko. The best part? My path was lit by the first fire flies of the season! I could have stayed for an hour watching them slowly light and dim. Unfortunately, their light show was followed by a bad performance by the mosquitoes.....
I love your use of mixed medias - I'm always afraid to mess it up! But yours never seem to be a mess, they are beautiful. I guess art is experimentation and I'm afraid to experiment. I've got to get over that!
