12X16 plein air oil WOW, what a spectacular day! Four of us were lucky enough to get to plein air paint at the beautiful estate of Bob and Libby Swenson in Spring Creek Ranch. We were treated like visiting royalty, which is what dirtbag artists secretly are :) and allowed the run of the place. We were greeted with cantalope tidbits, coffee and tea and given a small tour of the property...I imagine it would take days to really see the whole place. I settled into this lovely clearing and worked myself into a frenzy trying to capture this magnificent Douglas Fir...the biggest one I've EVER seen! After raining all night the colors were fresh and alive. I hope I did it justice and want to thank our wonderful hosts for also treating us to a picnic on their tipi's deck! Wow...feed us we will come...and multiply. Che bella giornata!!! (What a beautiful day!!!)
