Plein Air Memphis!
I had such a good time this morning painting with Plein Air Memphis. We got together at the Wolf River and spend about 2 and half hours painting. Afterwards we met up and got a group photo. Such great artists - they are an inspiration to me!
So this is my effort from today. For the most part I was happy with the values. So much green! So many variations of green! I used a limited palette simply because I was too lazy (or maybe too hot) to get some more. So I was proud of myself for achieving these colors with just ultramarine, viridian, cad yellow light, cad red light, black, and white.
This is my third time going on a paint out, and I can tell I'm getting a bit better. Trees are so incredibly hard to paint!

The Ring
Always love painting from life group on Wednesday nights! This was our model. She is getting married in two weeks so I don't know how she fit this in!
I had a difficult time painting her but I was really proud of the pillow! Haha!
Ten Years
Yesterday I celebrated my ten year anniversary with this guy. So in celebration, I did a quick painting from this picture on our honeymoon.
I don't think I've attempted many self portraits, so it was a bit difficult to paint myself!
