The photos of the Pumpkinfest were truly lovely. Looks like the town where your sister lives really gets into the fun of autumn with a nice parade. Love your above painting. It is so beautiful and peaceful. Hope you are having a nice visit.

I see your work is a beautiful as ever. I have just had a look at your sketches from when you visited Australia. I can't believe the bad timing of me being in the UK while you were here in Perth. I would have loved to have you around for lunch and do some sketching together. I hope you had a great time over here.<br />Sorry it's taken me this long to look at your posts - life has been ridiculously frenetic and surreal since August 2016. I'm finding it hard to get back to my art and writing but I will do so sooner or later.<br />Hope all is going well.<br />Very impressed to see how prolific you remain with your beautiful work!<br />Love, <br />WendyxxxxxWendy Barretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809722045189710005noreply@blogger.com
