Lilacs


My plein air group, PALS, had our first outing of the season on Tuesday at the Bayard Cutting Arboretum in Oakdale. The lilacs were in bloom...and they smelled heavenly. They are definitely not easy to paint...sort of like painting hydrangeas. Too many tiny blossoms.

    Often it is the impression that makes the most impact. This is lovely Joan.

    Excellent, I just love lilacs. None here, I guess it is too hot. We had them in NM. I love the smell and they are beautiful as is your painting. :)
