One more painting from our trip to Lake Travis last week. I set up down by the lake and spent a couple of hours on this painting. I’m not crazy about it so I won’t post a close up. This was a case of painting what I know instead of what I see. I know trees are green so I painted the trees across the lake green. But, if I were to really look at the trees, and forget what I know, I would have painted them a grey bluish-green. A good lesson.
Afterwards my son and I went for a swim!
