Another watercolor painting created from my mobile studio in the back of my SUV. It is such a joy to head out to paint at a moment’s notice, knowing I am fully supplied and haven’t forgotten anything. Before I started carrying my painting supplies in my car full time, the thought of packing everything up was sometimes so overwhelming that I just wouldn’t go at all. Now I just fly!!!

This barn out on Scio Church road was so pretty with the sun flower garden that I stopped for a quick watercolor landscape.

Spent a lovely afternoon with my plein air group painting in one of our member’s garden on Wednesday. There were so many great views, I didn’t know where to start. I finally decided to zero in on her fence of sunflowers since I had never painted them in either pastel or watercolor before. I love doing flower paintings in sunlight because of the interesting light and shadow effects that occur. That’s what its all about for me…light patterns!

Off to work on my watercolor commission of Gettysburg!
