Full Thunder Moon

Full Thunder Moon by PJBee 
Full Thunder Moon, a photo by PJBee on Flickr.

This was the scene last evening when I took the dogs out for their last pee trip. I had written off being able to see July's full moon.... but the clouds parted briefly and I was there.... quite accidentally!  It brought to mind the Lemony Snicket's line that I read on Jan Yates blog recently....
It is one of life's bitterest truths that bedtime so often arrives just when things are really getting interesting.  ~Lemony Snicket
I painted the sky and moon from memory and the tree plein air today :)

  2. I just received my book and I love it..It has inspired me to learn to paint..When in Europe..I kept a journal for our month's vacation there..and it's a treasure for me..I painted a few small things(I am more than a novice)..
    Your book is just precious..

    I sat in the sunshine yesterday w/ a cut off sock on my wrist:)..my small travel paintset..a waterbrush..

    Just so inspired by the book.
    I am so happy I bought it.
    It's a delight and a treat..

    Thank you, Kate!!! That means an awful lot :) I've been collecting bits and pieces of moon info/goodies and hope to compile all into a small book.
