Last Thursday I went out to Lake Bob Sandlin with Suzanne Clarke to do some plein air painting. This lake is in East Texas about a 100 miles from Dallas. We went into a wooded area where I painted two views. I'm going to show the last of three paintings that I did in the course of four hours. The interesting thing is that the old rule of painting fast is best held true pretty much this day. I spent 30 minutes on this painting. The colors turned out very vivid because I was sitting in the shade and looking at a scene in the sun. When I make corrections on this painting, I'll make the grass in the foreground more green and adjust my darks and lights. Over all it was a great day.
