'Sunny Day'
Oil 11 x 14
47/100
Day 47
Members of our plein air group (Susquehanna Valley
Plein Air Painters) have spent the last two days
painting the sunflower fields of Ashcombe's Garden
Center. In addition to the beautiful sunflowers,
there were butterflies, bees and goldfinches and even a baby
bunny rabbit that squealed when one of our painters
walked a little too close to where he was hiding.

I just wish I could do this with you all. Getting together to paint would be so much fun! Love the sunflowers. And way to go on keeping your committment to painting! Terrific.
Beautiful work Claire. You are truly a "plein air painter"! This was such a nice place to paint (and have lunch :) I will have to finish my painting later today and hopefully post it as well.
WONDERFUL, Claire! Great detail and composition...ahhhh sunflowers!
Thanks, Linda - you should come out with us some time. We really do have a great time!
Can't wait to see your painting up here, Julie!
Bertie, your ears had to be burning over the last couple of days...there were several of us DPP members among the group that was painting these sunflower fields, and at some point each one of us brought up the fact that you make painting sunflowers look so effortless, when in fact that is far from the truth. We were in awe of your work before, now we are positively reverent!
sunflowers and sunflower fields are HARD! But they are so joyful and proud, we long to try in our own way to capture that!
SALUTE TO SUNFLOWERS - STUNNING and SERENE!
Way to go Claire! What a fun painting. Sounds like you all had a grand time! If I would've known I would've come out with you all..
