I am happy to say the Reno Tahoe Plein Air painters, a group of Plein air painter brought together by an BlogSpot post created by painter Carolyn Thompson from Reno made the trip out to the Carson Valley to paint on June 1st. It was great to see them all with their easels set up in various places that morning. I was too excited I guess to get pictures of them, I am sorry. 3 ladies came from Fallon Nevada, and most from Reno, some from Carson City and then myself. This is always fun, and I love to see what they paint. This is what I was able to do, in pastel ,
on pastelmat, 9 x 12
I was surprised I was able to get these old building and the above ground gas tanks we have on the ranch , from their back sides. I have never done so many buildings at one go before! Going out with a group like this sure does get you going again and I am ready now to continue. And Carolyn did 2 paintings, small, in Oil. She did the cows in the corral, and the big tractor! She said she might send me one and if she does I will post it here. Happy painting!
