My second attempt at plein air painting taught me I have to keep at it. My white water looks terrible, but I like the rest. Too bad there is so much white water.

Painting by the river today was so nice. So many people and their dogs came to rest by the bridge where I stood. I was tucked back as much as I could be so I wasn’t blocking the way with my easel and supplies. I had fun watching all the dogs who were so happy to swim in a river that is bound to be dry soon.

I don’t want to talk about this painting. I just have to post what I do. It helps me to be accountable. I have to keep posting proof of my efforts.
