The “Art Spirit” is with me today–another clear morning to paint. As planned, I headed to the Alluvial Falls so I can expand upon my initial study and paint a larger piece. I think this turned out well, although I’m still not sure that a) the source/direction of the light is clear enough (separation between dark/light) and b) the pines in light…still not sure it’s the right green.
I could have sold it off the easel today, so I guess that’s a good sign. Lots of interest and one man offered to write a check right there! I told him to check the gallery on Saturday. Don’t want to cut out their due. I wouldn’t be here if not for the show…
After a brief seista, I’m off again later to paint sunsets at Moraine Park. I’d like to do a large (16×20) similar to the composition I did yesterday.
