My Adventure Plein Air
I know it has been a while since I last posted but it is humid and hot here in North Texas so while we are in the summer season I will be doing more plein air drawings with my graphite and color pencils than painting.
All my painting during the summer season will be in my studio. If you would like to follow me as I post a step up step of what I am working on please go to https://whatsonjdeasel.wordpress.com/
Well what have I been up to since the last time we talk? Since the weather has been heating up I decided to create a little… 
Note# I did not paint this and do not know who the artist is. But this is a good example of how to create a home made sketchbook that I carry in my pocketbook all the time.
These are great to drawing or sketch in while you are waiting for your lunch, window shopping, picking up the kids at the mall, etc.
A sample is while I was out to lunch with hubby the other day I saw hanging on the wall a deer head which I thought was something I wanted to try my hand at.
I place my little book on my lap and started to draw. It was a little funny to watch the waiter try his best to sneak a peak at what I was doing. All he had to do was ask and I would have showed him. but since he did’nt I had funny playing peek-a-boo with him.
A few weeks later we went out for breakfast when I happen to look up at the wall across from my hubby head I saw the mental piece of art work that was a fish just hanging there. I could not take my eyes off of it for the colors were just so lovely that I had to do a quick sketch of it.
As you can see I added some notes on the fish to remind me of the colors that I saw.
Also I have been working on a 11″x 14″ drawing of a old feed store in my home town area. I started out sitting in my car with the radio on working with some graphite pencils, drawing a every will know food store. but when I stared to shade it in I found that once again I was to tight with my drawing. So I stop and went home, set the drawing aside to think about how I could loosen up but still have a nice drawing.
A few weeks later I need to get my RV and house ready for my children and grandchildren to come spend their vacation time with us. As time drew closer I pick back up the feed store drawing once again and this time I would try something different. I was going to add some color pencils to it but in the studio.
Here I started the upper part of the building but as you can see I mess up the lettering so I will need to go back over it with white paint after I get the drawing complete.
Here is this picture I was trying to add some light but soon realize that I needed to keep the building in uniform.
This is were I left off.
Now I am going to take the drawing back out on the field to finish it. But a question keeps rolling around in my mind, “Is it still a plein air drawing if I finish it out doors? “Remember I started it outdoors and will finish it out outdoors but I did work on it in the studio for a bit.” “Oh and we know that it can not be call a All Prima Plein Air since it came into the studio.”
Hummm????
Food for thought?
Once I complete it I will post it again .
Until next time, keep creating.
