Day 35

 

Afternoon in a Very Old Church

I took a trip to England this summer to see my sister Renee's

 wedding. Wonderful trip! While I was there I had an

opportunity to sit in a very, very, very old Norman church and

paint. When you live in a place where the oldest buildings

are about two hundred years old and you go to a place where

they are four or five times that much, it's pretty awe inspiring.

This ancient little church now sits in the middle of a sheep

pasture. I sat there all alone painting while the rain pattered against

the windows. It was very peaceful.
