Today, Plein Air Painters of NW Michigan were at Saxon & Deans Art Studio/Farm in Lelenau Co. to paint the meadows, fencing, animals, and there were two sunflowers that were calling to me.
I tried my hand again at watercolor as I love the patience it requires. Once the paint is down, it can’t be lifted, so it’s easy to booger up a composition.
And then there’s the weather!
I got back in my car and headed home as a dark and sizable storm blew in. By the time I pulled into my driveway, 11 miles later, it was raining buckets.
That said, I did get the negative space filled in before fleeing the farm scene.
Here’s where I stopped today although it needs some finishing…It’s shiny as it’s still quite wet.
