Sketching in the Woods


This work is often called a 'painter's sketch'. I did it below Burnt Dam this afternoon.  It's a small 8x10 painting, and I cracked it off in little more then an hour.

Plein air painting has a certain rushing quality about it. There's not a lot of time available for thoughtful consideration and planning.  You look, spread  your paints onto your palette, then click and shoot.
