Go for the candy

 

Oil 6x8 on panel

After lunch at Balboa Island, my friend Karen and I walked along the street looking for a shady area and interesting spot to paint. Karen had her eyes on this candy store and across the street is a for lease property; a shady spot and no people in and out, perfect! Within the two hours we been there, there were people, bikes and dogs in front of the store, I can choose whichever scene to paint. Here is what I did.

Three palm trees at Balboa

A plein air painting day with four artist frineds at Balboa Island. What a beautiful day with temp in the 80's. This is my first time here and really enjoy the scenery. I still felt rushed in setting up for painting as usual and nothing was in order. The first painting didn't turn out satifying. In the afternoon I felt more relaxed and sitting under a shade. Looking at these three palm trees gives me an urge to paint them.
