Horn Feeds Mill Plein Air













3.5 x 2.5 pen on bristol

8x8 oil pastel with colored pencil on bristol, still struggling with these plein air oil pastels of buildings. I think the color is right. Very humid, paper started to curl. Finally caught up with these postings.

Inspired by http://www.gapingvoid.com/ . Looking for portable art opportunities due to my irregular schedule with last minute disruptions that have to be taken care of right away and nomadic lifestyle these last couple of days. Finally catching up on these posts.

Heaven City Oil Pastel 8x9 plein aire painting


Quite warm out today sat on a towel placed on a plastic bag. One of my pants legs dragged on the ground & got soaked. Struggled a bit with this drawing. My friends are a lot quicker than me.

Oil Pastel Vernon Marsh off Frog Alley about 8x12

My sister likes the colors because it's not gray like winter. I think you just have to observe the colors. They are a bit muted in winter but they are still there.
