I will be painting France for a long while. 
 I was totally charmed by the rolling hills, quaint villages, red tile roofs, and medieval buildings.

But now NEWS OF A CHANGE
It has been fully six weeks since my last blog post because I have not found the blog to reach a wide enough audience.  Also I never want to overwhelm my followers with too many posts, to have a feeling of being spammed.

ONCE A MONTH
I will be sending a newsletter from my website instead.  Those of you who have signed up to receive my blog will now receive a once a month newsletter instead of a blog.  You will have an opportunity to opt out of the newsletter should you choose.

HAPPY NEW YEAR with a "yay" for 2015!

PATCHWORK FIELDS IN FRANCE

PATCHWORK FIELDS IN FRANCE


Patchwork Fields in France

France is a gorgeous country.
The Lot Region is a farming area with many small quaint towns, rolling hills and patchwork fields.
I painted in the hot sun, 

getting a well earned farmer-tan,
 looking out across fields and valleys. 
Sheep came up to the fence three times to visit me
 and eat while one sheep piled next to the other. 

 "Give each other room", I called.


Silence

 Oh

 I'm in France  Wrong language

Then the "sheep head" bleated and off they ambled for 

greener pastures

still stuck to one another
