Signs of Fall in Austin: Butternut Squash at Sunset

The artist I share my studio with, is very neat. She is a dancer not a painter. I don't know about the rest of you painters out there but I cannot paint unless my whole house is clean, and my whole house is never clean. There is always something else I could organize or clean, and thus I found little time to paint. But this new studio, I walk in, and it's clean, and the light is lovely, and it shines through the window onto lovely things, like butternut squashes, which will always remind me of my mother.
