Red, White and...Blue Smoke.

I had a turkey in the smoker today so I needed to stay around and not paint offsite. So I pulled another couple onions out of the garden, one white and one red, and set up next to the smoker. I sometimes had to squint to see the onions through the blue apple wood smoke, but enjoyed the smell of roasting turkey. The sun was hot and I was not too displeased when it occasionally went behind the clouds.

I like the rich reds and purples of the red onion and the subtle creams of the white onion. Both were throwing long shadows. I got so into painting that I forgot about the turkey...it was a bit dry.
