A quiet pool sits above the upper McKinney Falls and trickles into another pool below. As I hiked down there yesterday morning, this scene caught my eye. I loved the way the angled light hit the grasses and bush in the foreground. I don't think I quite got the glow of it in this painting, but it is stuck in my memory! Now I am off to paint for the weekend with Plein Air Austin friends in Granbury, Texas. How great is that?
Laurel, You are one of my very favorite Daily Painters - your work always amazes me!! You've really mastered the painterly approach I always strive for, it's so inspiring thank-you:)
I find your work is an inspiration to me. Just looking at your paintings motivates me to dust off my pochade box and go out there and paint. I love your blog!
Laurel, another beautiful painting.
