Hey Friends, I was lucky enough to have a day with my plein-aire buddies, the DLPBR. We went to Carvins Cove which I think is still a major source of water for this area of Va.
I was sitting on a campers stool almost in the water when I painted this one. I obviously need to finish it, but it's a pretty good start. Plein-aire painting is a lot harder than you'd think!
This is about my view, peeking around the trees. I just wanted to leave the trees out.
But as you can see I'm over whelmed by all the green !!! I'll probably just pitch this one. I don't think I can save it. You try it. And let me know what you did with all that green.
I'm changing my sign off tonight - just a bit.
Happy Trails-Travel Well

Outside, sitting on a camper's stool--I'm impressed.
I might add a few tree trunks in the foreground of the bottom painting to break up the green--don't be in a hurry to pitch. Or, dragonflies against that background? I have no doubt that you'll think of something.
Hi Hallie, you are probably right ! But I already changed it, and I'm going to try to post that tomorrow. Thanks for the cheers.
