Looked to summer skies and the ocean for color inspiration, as today's skies are full of snow. It snowed all night and continues to fall, blanketing everything and creating a lovely stillness. A good day to stay in on this holiday Monday.
Summer Breeze (1.5" x 2.5") is made of needle felted Corriedale.
Your post today touched me on two accounts: (1) it's beauty and intent turned my attention to sunnier thoughts and (2) confirmed that the totally painful decision my husband and I made to leave VA (our daughter, son-in-law, and two granddaughters) yesterday afternoon instead of as planned today was wise.
Sorry to hear you had to cut your visit short..that must have been very difficult. I am glad, though, that you made it home before the storm hit. When I want to get feeling summery, I look at these (free stock) photos I found recently and used in my posting as color palette inspiration. http://cheerupandchillout.blogspot.com/2016/01/january-2016-day-10-painting-challenge.html Sunny days are on their way....

Summer heat here, in the 90's... but tomorrow we are in for rain.
