Backyard Plein Air


I worked on a painting this morning in our backyard.  Our iris are beautiful this year, so 
I'll be outside for the next few days!  We have a covered patio, so I leave this easel
outside, all set up, ready to go.  I'll post the finished piece soon.

Such a lovely way to spend the morning or afternoon. Beautiful gardens. Like the umbrella. :-)

That is beautiful. WE planted iris this spring and they're popping up. I like your easel with the umbrella. I want to paint in my garden. You've showed me how.

Thank you Debbit and Jenny. I love when the weather and flowers both work for me!! Ideally, a plein air umbrella should be white and/or silver, but the practical gal that I am, this was in our garage and it works pretty well. Keeps the sun off the palette and canvas.

The Iris's look so beautiful, Pam... I wish I can see it up closer...!!! It looked like the perfect day to paint outside!
