plein air:spicer's creek

 11x15

My painting friend Bill Yerkes is in town for a few days (you can see his paintings here).
We spent a few hours at Spircer's Creek, where we painted last fall too. A good spot: plenty of parking, which is an important consideration in Cape May.
I was surprised when I got home how grayed down my greens are in these two paintings--they really looked a lot brighter while I was painting!

Laura these are beautiful There is a peace and serenity that you have captured with both of these works. Hope your June is off to a lovely start.

Thank you, Barbara

Thank you, Debbie. I wonder if the serenity comes from the monochromatic color, the flatness of the land, ir my mood while painting. Maybe all three.
