Well, I finally got out to paint yesterday. Me and a couple of painting buddies from CC, Guy Morrow and Jess Barrera, went out toward Beeville, TX. We just drove around and found a couple of scenic spots that weren't on the main highway and set up and painted. Images of the two paintings that I did are attached. I really had some trouble seeing when I did the oak study. It was already about 1pm by the time we finished, and the sun was directly overhead. I was having trouble seeing colors and values...I guess because it was so bright. I was working in the shade, but I still had trouble. The light was bright and it was really hot! I think that whenever I go out in the future, I need to put down the brushes for 3 or 4 hours in the middle of the day, and then start again. Still had a great time, and it was fun talking sh...... art and doing some plein air painting!
