What a treat to get to paint at a horsecamp for the Quick Paint at Van Buren County plein air event! With horses and an assortment of barns and rings, this place is eye candy to this artist! I wanted to paint this as soon as I pulled in, so I pulled over to get out and look. Already 3:00, I had to eat my lunch salad before painting, I was just too hungry to wait until 5:00. So, I used up 40 minutes of my quick paint time eating, while studying the scene before me. Once I started, I painted fast, laying down light, shadow and chroma. Horses and riders passed by and visited, adding so much to the whole day. I sure wish I had more time to paint here, this place is amazing! It was an honor to win the Quick Paint, too! Painting number 4229 in 4229 days.
