A very hot day...in LA

This heat wave seemed to have come from nowhere and it's caught me off guard. With conditions being terrible, I decided to go outside and paint. I tried my hardest not to butcher these paintings (which are small, about 3x5). It was very zen to sit under the shade, observe, and to paint. The green blob is a cactus flower next to the tree I sat under and the second is a vignette of a view I had. It had an interesting negative space.

Anyways, I have only 2.5 weeks before I ship out. I'm rather amazed at myself for not being pressured to get everything ready, but it seems things are smooth. Of course, it may get bumpy near the deadline, but I'm trying to avoid that. I should probably go get a few power converters...
