Spent a lovely afternoon with my plein air group painting in one of our member's garden on Wednesday. There were so many great views, I didn't know where to start. I finally decided to zero in on her fence of sunflowers since I had never painted them in either pastel or watercolor before. I love doing flower paintings in sunlight because of the interesting light and shadow effects that occur. That's what its all about for me...light patterns!

Off to work on my watercolor commission of Gettysburg!
