Patio Seating -a plein air painting from my backyard


oil 8x8 inches magnify/purchase info When finding a subject outdoors I look for light and shadow. It was a clear morning, when light is strong and clean. I got excited about the shadow moving across the chair. The basket holds limes from our tree. Did you know that fully ripe limes are yellow? This is #4 in the Strada Challenge: 31 paintings in 31 days.

  2. Thank you! This painting looks so much better in person. The green of the chair is more subtle. Not so limey. I was not able to edit the photo to my liking.
