Even tho the weather was not the best I went to Gold Head with 3 wonderful Friends.
Amy, from Jacksonville, Fl., and Donna and Carol (sisters and snow birds), from Canada.
I gave Donna and Carol a little tour of Gold Head and then we settled on a location. What was I thinking when I suggested this location? It was down a large slope. And we had lots of supplies to carry down. Oh yes and carry or should I say struggle back up with our supplies. ugh... We had a really nice lunch and then looked around to decide on what we would each paint.
I found a huge old oak. That caught my eye right away so that was what I wanted to paint. I'm not sure how long we were there. I got right down to painting. I found some things difficult..Like trying to stay straight..I was sitting on a big slope and trying to keep everything from moving away from me. I wouldn't give up on the big oak so I kept painting. Donna and Carol spotted some ducks playing in the lake..they even told me the exact kind of ducks they were. Cool!
We had a wonderful time and I sure hope they ALL will come along with me on another adventure of painting.
This is my painting from our day at Gold Head.

That is a neat looking tree. I also love the way you did the ground. You are definitely getting the hang of painting "loose" with that big oak tree! You are progressing well.
Beautiful! What an adventure you had to make this pretty painting!
What a beautiful painting! I love the way your paint just flows over the tree!!
Gorgeous work!!
