Plein Air Painting

(C) 2020 Dale DiMauro

We have had quite a string of beautiful days lately. This weather has inspired me to get outside and paint. 

This plein air I started this afternoon near a local quarry. As I was pressed for time, I expect to finish it at home in the studio. I had a tennis date that was equally exciting.

I think in an abstract way this watercolor captures some of the dappled light cast from the canopy of the local forest. Also, I was struck by the greens and browns which I was seeing. They give this scene an earthy quality.
