Cliff Cave Park


Hot Breezy Day


plein air oil 8x10

Summer Breeze by the River

sold

The temperatures were in the upper 90's and the only bearable place to paint was under the main shelter.  There was a gusty wind from there but worth the cooling relief that it brought.  Looking across these willows caught my eye and the grasses in front of them were waving in the breeze.  I never noticed the heat once I started painting and finished up just as the wind calmed down.
