Spring



Along the Creek



6x8 oil sketch

It's been overcast and cloudy days lately and finally a day with a promise of sun.  I like to paint in a few different spots along Gravois Creek so headed there for some peaceful paint time.  Alas no sun just overcast clouds.  I did this little sketch and just as I was near finishing blocking it in the sun came out and lit the side of that house across the way.  I quickly made the changes necessary to show that beautiful light.  I "chased the light" in this case and was glad I did. A capture worth waiting for.
