Morning Light in Texas

From the porch of our rented house in Driftwood, Texas, I paint the morning light on the grass. (link to Facebook video) If you listen closely to the recorded sound, you can hear Jeanette whisking scrambled eggs in the kitchen.

I'm using gouache, first transparently and then with more opacity. For some of the bright light effects, I use a hard pastel called Nupastel.
