Here's a larger version of the painting I did last week. The panel I painted this one made it turn out very shiny, I'm not sure why, but the same thing happened with yesterday's plein air painting.
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...
