The End of a Perfect Day

Pretty happy with this painting, I must say. I didn't know I could do that. Paint recognizable people, I mean. But I really wanted this painting. I mean REALLY wanted it. My favorite people in my favorite place.
It only took me about 14 months of picking at it. Making progress. Setting it aside. Looking at it half finished. Picking at it again and then finally telling myself that I would not paint ANYTHING ELSE until it was done. And what do you know? I did it.
Yay, me!
Now, what? I'm thinking Tuscan vineyard or blue-eyed husky. Or both. Yeah, probably both.
Can't wait.
