Inspiration

Last night we heard the most wonderful, yet intriguing music coming from our neighbor's backyard. They invited us over for awhile and the instrument that was being played is called an *oud* - something I had seen many times but didn't know the name of. Besides making beautiful music, the instrument itself was a work of art. We failed to take pictures but I found one online that will give you a good idea. ((See the link below)) There were 3 ouds being played but the one that I tried to capture with this palette is closest to the second picture on the link page - the one with the mosaic-patterned back. The mosaic was different but still just as spectacular. Learning something new everyday!
