We practiced "inventing" compositions during the Upper Schooner workshop. It's sort of like telling a lie...but instead of feeling guilty afterward, you feel elated that your picture isn't a boring waste of paint.

Upper Schooner Lake 1 and 2
oil on canvas
both 8" x 10"
These are two demonstration paintings from this weekend's workshop. Larry Rudolech and I may have ruined plein air painting for everyone in attendance, but we yelled a lot and ate several sandwiches.
Here is a funny candid photo from the Upper Schooner plein air workshop. As you can see, we had a great bunch of students. Also, as you can see, Larry's head ended up getting sunburnt. I stepped on a bee.
