It was growing late in the afternoon before I had a chance to go paint. Another day at 60 degrees could not be wasted, so I grabbed my smallest Guerrilla box - my 5x7 thumb box, and hit the road. It was heavily overcast with a light drizzle, but still warm as I reached my destination. I love all the angles here - and especially how rich and dark green the water is in back. Dramatic. So, I started by painting my darks, and next with lights. The light is fleeting here in the woods this late, and I've found that if I don't get that color marked, it's gone with the sun in the blink of an eye! This was a quick paint, the clouds growing heavier as I worked. As I packed up and hiked to the car, the drizzle increased. Looks like I timed it just right. Painting number 1867 in 1867 days.
