On Thursday night, I woke up a zillion times wondering if it was raining yet. It wasn’t. Mid morning, it rained! Not much, but enough to clear the air. I don’t know the effect on the inferno, but the air stopped having texture. 
I can paint another day with the doors flung open and I feel happy! Let’s get started on Yokohl.
Sky and clouds first.
Hills next, painting back to front.
And creek and ground last. Then I set it in the waning daylight to photograph it. After that, I painted the edges.
It isn’t signed yet because of that waning daylight. In brighter light I will probably find a dozen things to fix. This one doesn’t really call for much drawing with my paint brushes, but I will probably figure out a way to do that. Fence posts, wildflowers, grasses, an alligator in the creek . . .

So, SO happy to see that top photo of blue sky and fluffy clouds. Yay!
Sharon, it was thrilling!
I am sure that the alligators in the creek are caused by global warming, er climate change.
Dan, if you call it climate “change”, you will always be right!
Is he native??
Anonymous, is the alligator native? I’m just being silly about an alligator!
