Marsh Birds are another of my Plein air paintings done this month. I love doing plein air and I love the subject matter. I use a limited palette and did finish in my studio. The painting is framed and signed for you.

A marsh painting done from Crystal Beach,TX.  My brother owns an airboat and we were able to go into places that other boats cannot get to.  The egrets and other shore and marsh birds were feeding in the water and grasses.  It sure helps to have a camera with a zoom lens.  Wildlife is so wonderful to observe in their habitat.

Behind the Lighthouse - Port Bolivar, TX.

                                         Behind the Lighthouse – Port Bolivar, TX.

 

   Behind the lighthouse was painted on location recently while in Port Bolivar, TX. with the Outdoor Painters Society.  It was a very windy few days there.  After finding a pretty good place to park the car, my friend Barbara Haviland and I set about painting the scene before us.  The car did an ok job of blocking the wind, but not enough.  I finally had to prop a large rock against the leg of my easel to keep it from blowing over.  Ahhh, the hazards of painting outdoors and the joy too.  Nothing like seeing nature up close.  It’s always surprising how each of us found something appealing and pretty to paint.
