Playing with a thought

I have had this idea for a small painting in my head for a while, what things look like just after a fire, still with embers and a few stumps still burning. I havent done much painting for ages but this rather stark painting wouldnt go away. Hope that it isnt the forcast for the next few days when more heat is expected. I was up early this morning having to go in for a fasting blood test and I have been sewing but in between this painting started to appear. Normally I am so impatient that with watercolours I dont really let them dry enough. This time I did and perhaps it worked.

That's a very moving image. How big is it? I think it would make a very impressive poster - quite large.

Penny, you've nailed it with this one.
