Englewood Yard, 5x8" watercolor, plein air, ©Diane Mannion
Day 3 of 30/30 Chalenge
Painted with the Englewood Plein Air Painters on a hot summer morning. Lots of creative energy happens when artists focus on the same scene. Interesting to see the variety of interpretations.
It's not a view I would have chosen, but planted myself in one spot and let the brush react to light and color. Impossible to actually paint every detail, so much is simply imagined and simplified. It's an impression... rather than a rendering.
If there's just one piece of advice I have for folks... it's find a group or painting buddy! Great incentive to "get out there."

Beautiful light!
Thank you, Martine! The light was beautiful and HOT but at least there was a breeze and no one complained.
Wonderful color and light. This makes me want to visit Florida again.
It's not bad down here, Sandra... even in the summers for over 20 years now. Thanks for your comment!
Beautiful play of colour! Interesting that ended up so successful and it was not the place you would have chosen to begin with. Nice work!
