CORRALES WINERY BLUE
 |
| Gate to No Where I started painting this gate by 8:15 AM, on a typical intensely bright sunny New Mexican day. All week I painted in Corrales, NM en plein air for the Corrales Plein Air Event. It was intense.... daily hauling equipment dealing with an umbrella that had a mind of its own Yet I promise you.... in NM you either use an umbrella or find a shady place in which to paint. Yet it was a fun week filled with meeting other artists working with Sue Winstead, a most talented coordinator attending meetings and events |

Looks like an idyllic day, with a good painting at the end of it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marion...the weather was perfect at 8 AM...got much warmer later so I was grateful to be finished before the heat.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Carol!!!
ReplyDeleteAwww thanks, Sheila.
DeleteCongratulations on a good painting! And you sold it too!
ReplyDeleteThe owner's wife came out to visit with me while painting and she decided to buy it at the time, when I hadn't even finished it yet. I was blessed! Yay.
DeleteHi Carol. You have such a way of capturing charm in your art. I just love all the atmosphere you paint. Painting outside is a challenge, but I know it's inspiring to be out there.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for always visiting my blog and leaving such nice comments. I really appreciate it.
Have a great weekend!
Thanks Lisa. I love your complement of "such a way of capturing charm in your art". That is a favorite complement to date!!!!
