Plein Air at Big Hill Springs

The main waterfall at big hill springs, I never painted this one before, this just needs a few tweeks and its a done, I was out there with Jan chalupchanek and Linda Wilder on Tuesday, fighting the mosquitoes that haunt me now with all the bites.

Just to show you what I am working on - another horse for the western showcase - Calgary Stampede/western in smittys

I forgot to mention how painful it is for me to paint in acrylics, hm not my favorite medium at all but I am needing to get some done, the oils may not be dry in time to show. So I will work hard on producing acrylic paintings for the next few days.
