My Plein Air painting

Well I guess I'm feeling brave since I'm uploading my pityful attempt at plein air painting! This is a photo that I took at Tina's farm and below is my little painting (8" x 10"). I'm still working on it but I think it will become a 'study' and will never see the light of day!













I should have turned off the flash when I took the photo because it is distracting......the center of the picture isn't that bright.

Thank you Grace. Plein Air just means painting outside on location which in some instances can be fun. You wouldn't think it would be much different than painting in the studio from a photograph but it is totally different. Thanks for looking and commenting! Kay
