April Moon-Enid, OK__8x10 oil on linen___for exhibit Passing America: the Great Plains Last week out on the plains we ended up staying in Enid, Oklahoma...twice! Our first day out, we got there just after sunset, and I sketched this quickly...my last "drive-by" painting of the day. I had already put up my paints for the day, but when I saw the sliver of a new April moon, I could not resist! So, WHY did we stay in Enid twice?? Usually I like to take a different route on the way home, but when we left Enid the next morning we left a bunch of our stuff in the room, so we sort of HAD to go back for it....oops

I've seen many of your paintings of the moon, but I really do think this is the best one. That sky is breathtaking!
