Hopes of Rain and Cooler Weather

Hopes of Rain and Cooler Weather

Here we are talking about Fall again.  But unfortunately we are having triple digit temperatures here in Oklahoma and a drought as well.  It is really sad for so many reasons, one of them being that it is affecting crops and livestock not only here but in other states as well.  Because Fall has been in my mind lately I have also been painting Fall subjects.  Fall brings cooler weather and hope of rain showers as well.  It sure gives us something to look forward to doesn't it?  Another reason why I love Fall is because of its change in weather and scenery.  We don't have much of a change in seasons in Brazil where I grew up.  We have mostly Summer, and the occasional cool days in Winter, but not anything drastic.  It is a beautiful country though, with its gorgeous flora and fauna.  But anyways...I thought I'd share my new Fall Painting with you today and a photo I took last year of a pretty bird enjoying the rain.  I hope you enjoy and let's keep hoping and praying for rain and cooler weather too! Thanks for stopping by, I'd love to hear from you :-)
