Keep practicing


Why does plein air painting has to be done so early in the morning? Of all the plein air groups I've heard of, none of them starts in the afternoon. I'm sure lots of plein air painters has regular day jobs, so how come they don't want to sleep in on the weekends?? Is the lighting in the morning really that much better? Surely painting outside anytime of day would be just as good.... Zzzzz....

Beautiful as usual Kate. I really like the color variances on the garlic. Really makes them come alive. I confess I don't know the top fruit, but I can recognize a well captured color key. Great harmony.
