Spring in Augusta Village Pl


 

I got drenched painting this one in the rain, as did my palette and pochade box.  I had to keep dumping the water out of both just to finish my painting!  When I know rain is getting close, I try to cover my panel as quickie as possible with paint, leaving no bare surface.  Whatever doesn't get oil paint on it absorbs the rain and humidity, and resists further oil application.  So, the tiny bits that i missed had to dry before I could add more paint.  Through the struggle of it all, I finished with a painting I am happy with!  Painting number 5163 in 5163 days.
