We were having some beautiful weather down here in Puna, and the days seemed endlessly long and beautiful. With the exception of a couple of afternoons when we got rained out of our current painting spot in Opihikao. Cosette finally joined us after weeks of travelling and not painting, but it started to pour minutes after she got her easel set up.

I spent way too much time painting a banner on a sheet for my longtime friend and model Poni, who is throwing a first birthday lu'au for her first baby. I hope it stops raining tonight.
