Always stay close to your easel.

During PAE we were invited out to a lovely private property to paint for the kick off of Plein Air Easton.

I chose this spot along the rivers edge. As usual I charcoaled in my initial design before beginning to lay in my color.

I remember taking the golf cart to buzz back to my car to retrieve some more bug spray. Upon my return I was surprised but then again not, to see that there was a new little critter added to my water.

Hate to say it again, but never a dull moment and you really need to keep an eye on these artist types.

I decided to paint it out, it kind of threw the balance off of the main design.
