It was wet and rainy this afternoon, but I still got outside and painted in the elements. After lunch I painted three watercolors, all on different papers, and this was the largest (9" x 12") one.
This was painted on a Kilimanjaro 140lb CP watercolor block. I have limited experience with this paper but learned I could lift pigment readily with a paper towel as drops of rain fell on the paper while I painted.
This was the first real plein air I have done in a while, and was determined to plunge in regardless of the outcome. Today, I became aware of how verdant the landscape truly is.
