This was my little First Friday painting. I don't know if I'd call it a demo, since I was tucked in a corner where know one could see me :) It's probably one of my favorite plein air paintings though.
I'm getting a little more used to this whole plein air thing, there are parts of it that I love and parts that I could do without....like people warning me that I'll probably have ticks on me from standing in the grass. I'm thankful for the warning, but then my ankles itched for the rest of the painting because I was sure there were ticks on me! I couldn't find any.
I brought two panels with me, so I decided to have fun with the second one. There were trees to my left that had this amazing light that kept peeking through briefly while I was painting the first one. I knew I...
I confronted my fear the other day and set up outside to paint. I enjoyed it SO much, even though it was windy, and strangely cloudy (really high clouds that made the ocean brown!). I love my plein air set up, I think I made a great choice, it was just as comfortable as painting in my studio.
I was nervous about what would happen when I brought the painting inside...would the colors be way...
