Schaumburg Plein Air workshop - Day 1
Today was the first day of a 4-day plein air (painting outdoors) workshop.
It was a gray day that kept threatening rain.
In the morning, we set up under the gazebo.
This is my morning painting. It's 8x10" oils on canvas panel.
I also tried to keep in mind what Tom Trausch, another local painter, told me: remember the purpose of the painting.
I simplified a lot. But I think because of that & keeping focused on the iris, this is the first in a long time that I’ve liked one of my PAs when it was done.
It was a gray, overcast day with frequent rain but we were under a large gazebo so it worked out okay.
Luckily the weather forecast for the other 3 days of the workshop is sunny.
This is just lovely! Great job Ann!
