On Tuesday my plein air group went to the Bayard Cutting Arboretum to paint at the dahlia garden. It is such a great location to paint. This is 8 x 10.
Since then I have been very busy getting ready for my upcoming trip. We leave tomorrow so this will be my last post for a while unless I can find somewhere along the way to upload a photo. I am ready with sketchbooks and sheets of watercolor paper and hope to sketch and paint every step of the way. If I can't post I will see you in a few weeks. Ciao!
Oh this is stunning Joan!! you are the flower queen!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous time in Italy, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing a subjects to sketch. I'm really looking forward to seeing your sketches when you return, if not sooner!
Have a fabulous time, Joan!! I'll look forward to all your sketches and travel stories when you return. Maybe you could post to Flickr while you're away...? I had pretty good luck posting sketches from Brazil with hotel WiFi.
