The Saturday plein air group painted at Lacy Park in San Marino recently. I didn't realize but it's been a year since I painted my watercolor
Park Crows there. My recent paint-out at the park was my fourth time painting there and it's always lovely with a nice variety of trees. The park has an extensive rose garden and beautiful arbor area that I would like to try to paint sometime when the roses are blooming. But, the roses were still looking very pruned for our paint-out that day.
The park was busy Saturday morning with dog walkers, soccer games, a dog training class, and kids learning to ride their bikes (the perfect place for that). I had a hard time deciding on a view to paint this time. I ended up just taking a seat on a bench by the entrance and doing a quick-ish gouache piece of the main walkway. Had to include some dog walkers!

Nice sense of sunlight, Sherry!
ReplyDeleteHi Joani, Thank You!
DeleteYour paintings are always even nicer than the photos you include, Sherry. This looks like such a neat place.
ReplyDeleteThanks Terry, sometimes I wonder why I include the photos...showing my perspective is off, etc. :-)
