Back to Glen Rose -1

Welcome to My Crazy Plein Air Adventures blog.

Beauty is where you find it. And sometimes it’s found by climbing over a few fences to get to an unusual subject. 

That’s part of what makes outdoor painting (Plein Air) so interesting to me. There are always new and interesting things to be discovered and painted.

Well it has been a while since I blog or even Plein Air this year. To make a long story short, in 2019 I fell into some health problems ( if you go back to HOT, HOT, HOT, post you will see me in a wheelchair but I am happy to say that I am out of that chair and ready to get back to painting again.    

The Outdoor Painters Society (this will be my last fair well time with them.

      But I will keep going out when I can to paint on my own) will be back in Glen Rose, Texas again in November.      

I have sign up to go paint with the group again. Or I should say I hope so.    

You see every time I sign up to go paint with the Outdoor Painters Society something always happen to trip me up, and this time is no different. You see I made a reservation with a RV Park in Glen Rose to bring my 5th Wheel out to their campground. But about two weeks later I got a call that the campground was going to have to cancel my reservation because they have a crew that is there to clean a local power plant that is on shutdown right now and the power plant will not be going back up until a week after I was gone. 🙄 

 What is an artist to do?

To tell the truth I was so fed up I just waned to throw in the towel. But that’s not me so the next day I cancel my plans to go paint so I could hunt for a new campground.        After a long day of looking I found a new campground and now I am set to go to Glen Rose and paint with the group. 

But first I need to go through my plein air bag and make sure I have everything that I need (It seem that most of my supplies are a little scatter around the house.)   

Plus this time I am going to bring with me something new. I have been playing with watercolors lately and I want to try my hand with them outdoors but first I need to put together a plein air bag for them.

   Well I guess I better start early in getting my RV ready too.
