Dog in the Field

This is what  spring looks like around here  now. Every yard has forsythia and the soft pastel colors of greens and reds are filling out in trees and hedges. The false hope of having an early garden vanished as the warm weather of early April  turned cool and wet.  As much as I want to plant the garden the cool wether prolongs spring. It  develops slower, over several weeks to a month, so i enjoy it  for a longer time.

I painted this scene in my yard with Mira my dog. She did not pose. I have many photos of her. She is an active dog and the only time Mira is still is when she is sleeping. 

The birds are singing all day and the peeps  are singing at night. All is well on Back Cove
