Camp Hill Plein Air. Day 2.


Day 2 of our Plein Air painting adventure. Weather is nothing like yesterday.
In-fact it is both - cold and windy and look like next two days it is not
getting any better, but perhaps we will be getting lots of rain...
All this mean - I do not have luxury of "taking it easy"
and need to finish at list one more painting.
I'm working today closer to our home and trying to stay
close to my car at case if we get all that rain.
Above - my sketch for #2 painting. Can not help it - love old bridges.
painted many of those and not going to stop.

Spraying graphite sketch with alcohol what will embed it into the paper.
Lisa is not happy with temperature and hiding in the pile of blankets.

 Watercolor underpainting for my pastel.


 Beginning of pastel application.

... and finally - finished painting!
No title yet. Still have to frame it as well. Great part - I have two works done.
Therefore, if weather will be totally miserable... I can just stay indoors for day or two.
But hopefully it is not a case and I will have a chance to do some more...
Tomorrow we will see...
