1823 Path by the Old Tree Plein Air

 

I painted this yesterday with my group, Plein Air Painters of the Treasure Coast. It was perfect out, nice breeze and not too hot. I had been a little worried about rain but it was fine. This is right when you drive into Becker Preserve. I have been wanting to paint this scene for ages, it is usually too bright with no shade for me. The sun stayed behind the trees till I was almost through with the painting. Painting is 8 x 10 inches, oil paint on masonite.
