Plein Air!

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.
