A change in the weather

The weather changed two weeks ago.  Practically overnight we waved goodbye to the scorching heat of summer and said Merhaba! to the wonderful Turkish autumn.  Now we can switch off the aircon, move into the sunshine and out of the shower and sleep comfortably at night.   For me, it means the brush has stopped sticking to the canvas and I can actually do things again.  I have reviewed my post of the 18th and reconsidered the Daily Painting ethic.  I reckon it wouldn’t do me any harm to actually submit to the discipline of finishing a small painting every day.  I don’t expect they will be landscapes but we will see.
