Coni, dave, and i took off to Rock Creek to paint in some snow for a change- what a beautiful day! It was warm and sunny the entire time and a good winter painting experience.

I always have a difficult time trying to decide the best scene to pick- there were quite a few to choose from- I was looking for strong value patterns and ended up picking some Aspen by the road- the sun changed the light patterns before I had completely set up the easel- so I knew this was going to be a quick one or I would lose those great shadows- painting partly from observation and partly from memory, I was able to get one done that I was pleased with....

I finished fast enough to walk around and take a few pictures- the pictures didn't come out that great as the light was bleaching everything out- I was thankful that we were out early enough to get some nice color.
