Plein Air at Lake Champlain



We visited Maggie Sherman on Lake View Terrace in Burlington this past weekend and had a fabulous day painting despite the threatening rain. Look for another stop at this great site. Marcie focused on the lake, while I on the guest cottage .Here are our efforts.

Painted weekend of June 7. Along with the blackflies, a big challenge for me is the color green.

The second one from Lydia Mountain

Bradley in Virginia


These two postings are from Lydia Mountain in the Blue Ridge range near Charlottesville. I was attending a wedding there and brought my paint box along. The landscape was very different from Vermont, with a blue in the mountains I found very challenging. Never travel without Your paintbox!!
