Sometimes the paintings fall off the brush and sometimes they are a real fight -but the more often you go out, the less times you fight it seems.Sharon Lynn Williams Fine Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00726267948612291474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7777493233451474951.post-50890328946477697052010-07-20T16:52:38.545-06:002010-07-20T16:52:38.545-06:00Beautiful painting Sharon.

I love the way the light hits the trees so perfectly, the deep greens and the way the road gently curves into the distance.Caroline Simmillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09598525698486576546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7777493233451474951.post-31112495383712001172010-07-19T20:01:51.208-06:002010-07-19T20:01:51.208-06:00Hi Holly: I will email you directly!

I have been using a Thermarest seat and a board across my knees, but you don't always want to sit -- and my current kit takes a long time to set up, which means I can lose the opportunity to get outdoors quickly to paint gorgeous light such as I was watching last night after the rain -- we had beautiful changing colours and dramatic sky!<br /><br />I recall from a paint-out in Lloyd Park that you have an easel that lays flat & works for watercolour -- can you tell me more about that easel? Or other ideas?<br /><br />I'm happy to see that you're getting out to paint around the foothills. If you're in Turner Valley give me a call. I'm really busy right now so can't get out for a day of painting (poor me!) but would love to give you lunch or a cup of tea or whatever if you're passing through<br /><br />HollyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
