I took a break from posting here because I went to France to teach a painting workshop! It was a life changing and beautiful, soul-filling adventure 🥰 I’ll share more once I process a bit more.

Days 28-29 of #pleinairpril this kit has served me well all month (there were some minor tweaks here and there). I feel all warmed up for summer.

Days 15-17 of #pleinairpril It’s been a little stormy lately, but today the wind was not as icy and I got a glimpse of that summer feeling 🥰

Day 14 of #pleinairpril the fields are slowly shifting to green. I love this combination of colors! I managed two study’s before rain chased me away. Need to return to this spot. #gouache #pleinair

Day 13 of #pleinairpril was chilly 🥶 I caught the only bit of sun before the clouds rolled in. As I was packing up these kayakers went by, might need to paint that in the future! Love the pop of red.

Day 01 of #pleinairpril Starting off at one of my favorite places on the coast! I was a bit frazzled and lost the plot in all those rocks BUT I had the most amazing morning by the waves.
Do it because you love it.
