Independence Day - plein air day and Where Eagles Fly

Yesterday was going to be a day to paint outside.  We drove to the location, was windy and cool.  I took photo's, came home, and after a nice nap painted this from one of my photo's.  I felt that even though it was not plein air, I did capture the morning light.

Today another plein air day with the Windsurfer and Buckley along to keep me company.  The results will be published soon.  Here is the scene....


I completed the underpainting and then heat rolled in.  We packed up and came home.  Early morning is so beautiful in July.  Enjoy your Independence Day and be alert.

You made the most of a beautiful day, Donna. Your painting does have a plein air feel. That's a gorgeous spot along the river! I could get lost just painting the rocks!
