March Painting Marathon - Day 12 (Night - Rain)

Can not sleep... have been trying to fall back into a dream for over an hour... But my mind is just too awake. (4:32am)
So I am going to go out painting... when I logged on to the computer... Patrick S. Greene emailed me... So we are going to go out painting... Time to get my pants on, and go paint. I will be on location in about 30 mins. I am hoping to to be on location before the light appears.

New socks and underwear... same cloths. hahaha

So I drove out to Bells Corner to collect Patrick S Greene.  he was ready.  So we drove down town.  It was raining pretty hard.  We talked about the effects water has on oil and acrylic... Patrick S Greene says, "it is a good thing we are not using water colours... we would be F#$%!"  We both laughed really hard.

getting ready to paint... blank canvas 

starting to paint... or make a mess 

Patrick S. Greene is there working hard and I have my equipment out door studio

 

It was raining really hard... and the water on the canvas was a real issue

so used a plastic wrapped canvas to use help protect the painting from the rain

 

just another photo of painting on location
