"Garden Path"


Despite our cold spring (we woke to snow Monday morning) the spring colors are sprinkling our gray days with some beautiful colors. I stood on the sidewalk while painting my neighbor's flower beds.

Plein Air Bluebells


I don't know if it is safe to say or not, but I think spring is finally here. Despite a drizzly morning I really wanted to paint the bluebells before they disappeared until next year. Of course part way through the sun came out. I'm not complaining. I'll take the rays even if it meant prematurely stopping on my little oil study. Next time, paint faster or rather with better accuracy. As always, this is another value study.
