I have just completed a semester of outdoor location painting. Here is the most successful crew of the bunch. I have to say, this class was very challenging. Although I am well versed in oil painting, it was a completely different monster to take on. Every moment outside is different from the last, and color relationships determine so much of the successfulness of the painting. It took a long time for me to resist just painting what I see. But I think I'm on to something here.
