Purple-blue Mountains
As the sun moves, the colors of the mountain ranges change from bright green to blue gray to purple. The tall palms are so huge and oddly shaped, they're almost comical. I'm a mid-west girl - these trees and mountains are a novelty to me.I did this sketch about a week ago, and now I am missing the sunshine and warmer temperatures of California. We have no leaves yet in northern Michigan, but the grass is very green today. The Bay is very blue - ultramarine blue. It is only 45 degrees. This might be a good day to go to the green house. I need some of that warm dirt smell.
