I am probably going to break one of my rules with this painting because I want to go back and clean up some areas. Part of me says stay with the energy that I got on site. The other is wanting to tame it a bit. I will keep you posted. This is the painting that I did in direct sunlight over at the gardens. My shirt was drenched with sweat when I stopped.
I painted this painting in the botanical gardens on Monday. I had shade for the entire painting session and I didn't get run over by cars. I used a silk surface that I purchased many year ago. The pond was amazing with blooms and shadows for me to play with on a very different surface than watercolor paper. I hope you like these ventures out of my norm.
