plein-air painting

this is by far one of the hardest classes i have ever taken. i guess i improved slightly, but i still have a long way to go.


this one is from cystal cove.


first week at irvine regional park, it was really overcast.


we went to little corona when the fires were burning. it was hard getting back in beach mode. this is the second one from that day.


when we went back to irvine regional park.

so, yea, still need lots of work. and i don't think that the scans look all that nice. too much shine and it messed with some of the colors.

work in progress


um, "action"

not done, needs splashes, they horses aren't done yet, etc. i need feedback on this one, so feel free to help me out.

more.

so, i have a couple more that just need for me to go back and touch up, hopefully i'll have time. i have 3 1/2 more to do before the end of the semester, so, it's crunch time.






oh, and i know that they around the same size, even though they should be....so formatting my portfolio for this class is going to be a nightmare. as will printing. i've been having issues with that all semester long, any suggestions?
