I met Sue Gorman for another 'Plein air wednesday' at Aberdeen, OH's river park.
The view of Maysville is impressive from the park. I was feeling ambitious, and thought I'd try and tackle a 20"x30" canvas. I figured I would just use a bigger brush, and it would be the same as a sensible 11x14 or 16x20 canvas.
My arm got much more of a workout, but I wasn't able to finish the painting...I stayed an extra 3 hours longer than our usual painting session. However, the great size of the painting gives a great impression of a magnificant view! I am finishing the painting in studio.
Sue left before I could photo her painting, but she did an excellent painting of the bridge in turquoise and oranges. If she sends me a photo, I'll post it...it's very nice.
Then, after a swim at the YMCA, a storm rolled in, and I had to stop and take a picture of the dark sky contrasting with the autumn colors.

Sue sent me a copy of her beautiful painting for everyone to enjoy...thanks sue!
