"In the Shadows" Oil on Panel by Dawn Waters Baker

"In the Shadows" 5x7, Oil on Panel

 

 

I got a chance to Plein Air paint this past week and it was actually a cloudy day with a cool breeze.  In July!  It was great although I think it has spoiled me as I went out again that same week and it was cloudy and cool.

 

One thing I love about the clouds is how they bring out the colors.  The green seems so inviting to me, so soft and cool.  I had fun sitting in the shadows of these great Oaks painting and enjoying the Texas landscape.
