This was such a beautiful place when Myrrh and I painted it the first time that we returned the next morning to paint it again. This time there was no fog but we started with a slightly overcast morning. Then things started to change! A while later the sky was bright blue, the water was darker, there were more shadows. I got out my umbrella. Thirty minutes later the sky was completely full of clouds again. Hmph. And a gust of wind blew over my easel with the umbrella attached. I somehow managed to land on top of it, trying to keep it from falling over I guess. But luckily my painting wasn’t damaged at all, I only got a handful of stickerburrs in my thumb and it was time to pack up anyway. If you watch the video below and see my painting disappear, now you know why.
Thank you for visiting my blog!
By the way- LOVE the video of your day
Stickerburrs… I had no idea! The final painting looks so idyllic- glad you let us in on the artist’s agony (but sorry about the tumble.)
