Sometimes, I wake up with a desire to paint a certain place. Whenever I stop by the gallery in Lee's Summit, I make it a point to head to this creek on the way home, painting gear in tow. It was certainly cold at 17 degrees, but I had dressed in layers, armed with hand warmers. Using my newest easel, the 5x7 thumb box by Guerrilla Painter, I was able to get this small panel covered in under an hour. I didn't even get cold until I had finished, and was walking briskly along the creek in search of other painting locations. My limited palette today includes Indian yellow, red oxide, white and black - and for now, my palette is an Altoids tin! I know, it's kinda crazy, but I just can't get paint on any easel if I can help it! Painting number 1455 in 1455 days :)
