Plein Air #4: Sequim Lavender Farms
A weekend before Sequim's Lavender Festival, I booked a cabin and packed my painting gear to hit the lavender fields while they were perfectly in bloom and, best yet, not nearly as busy. I did two paintings while basking in the sun and the smell of lavender.
Plein Air #3: Gig Harbor
For my fourth plein air piece, I challenged myself with a more complex subject and composition with buildings and water. It was good practice, and while I don't care for the final piece, it helped me break out of the mindset that every piece needs to be good.
Plein Air #2: Seward Park
First Plein Air Paintings
A 2-day workshop on the first very, very hot weekend in Seattle pushed me out of my studio and into Magnusson Park to create my first two plein air pieces.
2024 Trails
