The Last of March 2018

8" x 10" Oil on Panel

Yesterday the weather was great! For the first time this year I was able to paint outdoors in short sleeves. As I drove through ranch land west of town, I saw another plein air painter and briefly stopped to talk with him. Feeling motivated, I headed for a trail near the lake and made the painting shown above. The painting is of a view through tamarisk brush, over marsh grasses, and across the lake to the snow capped Oquirrh Mountains.
