Working on my first fabric collage piece!

Plein Air

Above, I have reworked the painting, at home. I had to move the fields!... Realized I am not good at laying out the painting yet... and need to work on 'drawing in the larger areas first, while I am in the field.





This is a first for me...
Plein air painting has always intrigued me, and I have finally decided to give it a try. I admit, I have a very long way to go!
Off to a friend's farm, with camera and paints in tow, for two hours.(painting time one hour)
Below is what I accomplished.

I am using water washable oils... also new for me. (Easy to clean up, in the field).
