| MVIS Zoo Paint-Out |
This painting day was spent at the Kansas City Zoo - on a Missouri Valley Impressionist's Society Plein Air Paint-Out. This Red Crowned Crane spent at least an hour in front of this little waterfall with a jet shooting right into her face! Mind you, it is in the 20's and ice has formed on the sides of the fall - and she loves the this spot! Only leaving it for a few minutes, she made a great animal subject - keeping this position as long as I needed her to. I have never painted zoo animals in plein air - and this was a wonderful experience! I hope to return often! This is day 20 of the 30 day painting challenge - and I am so glad I am a part of it!
Congratulations on braving the weather. Nice and loose - I'm sure the cold made you paint faster. :-D
