I love the reckless abandon of a wildflower garden! So many textures, colors and values make this meadow a fabulous paint! I begin with an ink drawing in early morning light. The colors are vibrant and shadows deep. I mark those masses early, which keeps me from straying too far from my intention. As the sun rises in the sky, the colors change drastically and I must hurry to finish. In two hours, this is already a different scene, and I can only hope to react honestly with my paint. Today's paint was during Monarch Mania at the Anita Gorman Conservancy in Kansas City, for the Brush Creek Art Walk. Painting number 2063 in 2063 days.
