plein air, vermont

Vermont plein air paintings.

I loved the blocky geometry of farm buildings--I have tons of ref photos of old barns. Enough to keep me busy trying to figure out how to use everything I learned in Susan Abbott's workshop for a long time.

And below, desaturated versions.

You can see where, for example in the first one, the darks need to be extended to the edge, a suggestion of Susan's.
