Park Road, oil on gessobord, 8x10"
The "heat dome" has spread over the majority of the U.S. and I went out to plein air paint earlier this week. I learned a lot during my 3 hours in the park near my home such as:
1. when the light is overly bright, tone down your colors 2. when dealing with mostly greens, decide the spectrum and mix up four greens to simplify this spectrum. 3. Bring food if you haven't eaten yet. I started to get shaky even though I was in the shade.
Also, I want to say that several strangers spotted me and stopped to chat and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. Thanks for taking the time out of your exercising to do so.
