This is a daily painting from last summer before I was blogging. There is about a 2 week period in late June (usually) when the yucca are in bloom. For those of you who don't know, these yucca are blooming. My plein-aire group went twice to the yucca field to paint good blooms. The first time was just a bit before the blooms. So, we tried again. There are hundreds of yucca plants covering the top of a mesa, it's pretty spectacular.

Yucca. Mesa. These are such foreign words to me. Beautiful painting, I wish I could see them in person. Hey... how about Quahog? Sea Glass? Come to RI!

Kelley, I think a quahog is a clam. Am I right?
