Wren

It's a cloudy day in Kansas, and cold. I haven't seen the wrens in the yard lately so they may have headed south. Wish I could go with them. I am trying different types of brush strokes on the gesso boards. They are slick and I need to find the right brushes so they apply paint and don't remove it as I paint. It's the challenge that makes me love oils and yet not like then at the same time.
