I am going to go out of secquence a bit and post what I painted today with the PALS Plein Air group. We were lucky enough to be invited to the R & M Andrews & Sons Family Farm & Greenhouses
in Wading River. When I say the owners bent over backwards for us I am not kidding.Water and donuts were even provided for us. My thanks to Denise Andrews for the tour and opening your farm to us. There was so much to choose from but I focused on the farmstand itself.
The flowers and vegetables had so much color.

This is 8 x 10.
We had a pretty good turnout today. Here is a photo of me with my work.
And with the scene I was painting.
I did catch some of the other artists busy at work.
Here is Linda.

And Chris
I missed getting photos of Rosamaria and Mary who were painting at the back of the farm.
I am hoping that we will return there soon.
What a beautiful scene, Joan. I love all the colors and all the wonderful details in this farmstand. Wonderful work.

This is a real feast for the eyes!!! Some more lovely bold colours and a really interesting arrangement. Vegetables and fruit make such attractive subjects don't they? Sounds like a perfect day out!!
