My Turn

There was a uninvited painter who painted during the quick draw.  It seemed like the wrong thing to do.  I waited until everyone left before I set up.  I have never been in a quick draw or a plein air event.  I wanted to use this opportunity to prepare for my entrance into an event next year.  I did not bring a frame for my painting but I wanted to see how well I could paint within a specific time frame.

In preparation for participation I will start timing my painting sessions.  I will also start practicing framing my completed paintings on site.

At this point, I am blocked in and working the values and details.

The finished result.
