Diane Mannion, 48 Chadwick Park, 8x10" o/c plein air
Fine morning painting at Chadwick Park, Englewood. This one's 100% plein air! Did not touch up later. A complicated scene, impossible to render all the clutter and jumbled details, a good exercise in simplification. Like how it captured the moment and feeling of the place. Painted on a wiped off demo, used purple and magenta for drawing and massing under the trees for the underpainting.

Lovely piece...so many details so perfectly rendered. Love iti!
Thank you so much, Maria. Amazing how many details I left out and it still looks like something. Maybe painting complicated scenes is the way to loosen up and simplify.
