practice instead of paying

Another one I did at Jackson Bottom Wetlands. I tried to stay in the shade because it got hot that day. Good exercise. 

This is another one I did in the morning at Jackson Bottom Wetlands in pastels.

Went out to Jackson Bottom wetlands early this morning and it was pretty much empty so I hiked aobut 2 miles and  sat in a field and did this little pastel.

Well I got them framed and now at Reed College for the Johnson Creek Watershed art show. It should be there about a month. Everyone seemd to like them so that was nice. Positive feedback.

Yeah! I got in the Johnson Creek Watershed show at Reeed College!  I love water. I got 2 pieces in and they will be there for about a month I think. I was looking at Johnson Creek and it looks like a good place to go do some studies. Hmmmmmm. Opening tomorrow nite. Artzy Happenings all over this area. What a bunch of artistic people we have here.

This was fun. I brought a little canvas notepad and scribbled in that instead af ruining a perfectly good canvas. I suppose this is my thumbnail. Now that I went thru a few kinks I think I will try and go back there with a perfectly good canvas and try the same scene. Hopefully I beat the dog people there. Gotta get up early .
