8 - good

My second painting for the Finger Lakes Plein Air Festival.

This was sort of an act of bravery for wimpy me - I stood on the sidewalk amidst the boxes of flowers. Joseph's had closed but people walked, bicycled and drove right past where I stood.

It was early evening, approx. 7:30pm when I started - so I had to paint quickly before the light disappeared, which ended up being a really good exercise for me. I like this one the best of the three I painted during the festival weekend.





(you can see how tiny my canvas is relative to the baldes of grass)

But guess what? At the final exhibition this painting sold!!!
My first piece of work to sell - WooHoo!!! :D
