I was inspired to post this painting after seeing Cecilia Lyden's posting from the same day. A group of painters met at the Two Mile House in Carlisle on Wednesday. Plein air painting with a group of people is lots of fun. It is so interesting to see how other artists interpret the same area, or even, what scene they choose to focus on. I find it helps me to see what I can do to improve my own work, and also helps me to appreciate and find my own unique style.

Love how you treat the shadows in the foliage.
You got a beautiful painting yesterday, Julie! I think it's neat that our posts happened to come in together and got posted one after the other. It's always interesting to see the differences (and similarities) of work done by different artists of the same subject. Beautiful work!
Ditto Jennifer and Linda and I'll add what I said to Claire--luscious!
This plein air group of painters needs a name! Awesome work Julie!
Julie, you have a wonderful play of sunlight dancing around this lovely little scene. Nice work.
What a beautiful yard!
Very nice Julie. What a nice area to paint!
