Pick up Sticks

This mat of reeds was laid down probably by a late season storm. When I saw the plastic sunflower stake, I couldn’t resist the photo. These are the fun things to discover for me. I just love to take something that is laying flat and paint it and hang it on a vertical surface. So long as I’ve got a good composition, it’s endlessly satisfying.
