The light was simply amazing as I opened my paints, and it only improved from there. Standing in a sliver of shade, I followed my drawing with paint. Taking the time to sketch first solidifies the lines and values in a way that jumping into paint does not. It makes the work easy since I've thought through the painting first. I also like to observe my scene thoroughly before I pick up the pen. Once the paint was flying, so many colors reflected off the surface of the water! It was fun to keep up with them in paint! I never tire of painting by the water. Painting number 1651 in 1651 days.
