Spring City Plein aire
Its not too hard to get back in the mood to paint. I spent two days this week in beautiful Spring City, Utah for the Spring City plein aire compitition. I painted two semi OK oils and one awful watercolor which no one will ever see. I forgot to get a shot of the first oil which was painted up Fairview caynon... the second oil was a hour long study, which not surprisingly was fresher and ...well not so stuffy.
It rained on me while I worked on both paintings, my good 'ol maxima is turning into the paint mule.

update
If you are reading the date on this post you will realize that it has been a while since I posted... but I have been painting! I promise
I used a wax crayon here to soften the mask...
and a Friskit mask here, I like the hard edges for the leaves.
I need to make a new easel, mine is reaching the end of its life!
Stay tuned for the finished painting.
