1809 Palm Island, Plein air

Did this one out at the Savannas Recreational area on Thursday.

This was out at Palm Island, they have a huge pavilion there than they let us use.  It was pretty hot at first but we finally started getting some clouds and a little breeze.  I heard some alligators and saw and heard lots of birds.  The egret was there and he was watching the bird in the background.  It is lovely and peaceful out there, I hated to come home!  

It's 12 x 16, oil on masonite.  $300.

1805 Secret Pond in the Woods plein air alla prima

I painted this out at the little pond at George LeStrange preserve. Lots of fun painting with everyone, started out like it looks here and then at 11:30 the skies opened up, thunder and lightening. Luckily there is a little shelter so we stayed pretty dry. When it eased up we went back to the car, I was walking faster than I have in years! Was scared of the lightening.

8 x 10, oil on masonite.

1791 Beautiful Day in the Savannas Oil Painting

Finally posting something recent for a change! This is from Thursday's paintout in the Savannas Recreational Area here in Ft. Pierce off Midway Road.

It was a disaster of an October, my husband ended up in the hospital with congestive heart failure, he is home now and seems to be doing well. I got a bug and had to go to the doctors, the stress sent my blood pressure up and the medications did not agree with me. First caused heart palpitations and next made me so dizzy I fell down a couple of times. All is well now with me, blood pressure is down to a low normal on no meds.
Then our toilet stops flushing! Septic tank filter was clogged. Great timing!
So I finally go painting, this is mostly from life but I had to tweak it some at home, I was a bit rusty! Its 8 x 10 inches, oil on Masonite, lots of textures, its almost all painting knife.

1789 Blue Heron Flyby Plein Air Original Oil Painting

Finally did some painting today with my group, the Plein Air Painters of the Treasure Coast! We had a lot of fun catching up, the weather is finally cool enough to paint in. It was getting pretty warm by noon and the light and shadows changed a lot.
This is how it looked in the morning, by noon it was cloudy and we had a few nice sprinkles of rain. Nice breeze from the east and I saw the blue heron flying past just where he is in the painting. So I am naming it "Blue Heron Flyby"
This is at the Savannas Recreational area off Midway road in Ft. Pierce. Its 8 x 10 inches, oil on Masonite.
