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 ( ein Air) so interesting to me. There are always interesting things to be discovered and painted.

Will the Pre-Paint Historic Waxahachie Event kick off on April 1, and on that date, I went out painted the ….
Today, I decided to go to my backyard and paint my Bluebonnets again this year.
Here is a close-up of my Bluebonnets and the two different stages of my painting.
Now, I did not get to finish the painting, and that’s only because I have cataracts, and it is making it hard and painful to see to paint. But if it takes me a little longer to get a painting done, that’s fine with me. I am not going to push my eyesight and be in pain just to say I finish a painting.
There is always another day.
On Tuesday, April 4, I had to work at the gallery that day. On Wednesday, April 5-7, the weather was cold and rainy.
So, on April 8th, the weather was overcast in the morning, but by noontime, it was in the low 70s. So I took my painting back outside and I finished it.
It felt good to be back outside painting again. I can’t wait to see what next week will bring for me to paint.
Title: Morning Stillness
4″x12″ stretch canvas. I use my acrylic paint. It was a nice sunny day with the change of rain that evening. Plus, the temp was in the med 90’s with a light light breeze.
Until next time, my friends keep creating, and God bless y’all.

Q & A
Who is this gal name J.D. ?
🎨 My name is J.D. Fields and I love to draw and paint nature.
🎨 I’m a Texas Artist.
🎨 I married my best friend and soul mate in 1998.
🎨 My husband has three children, two boys and a girl, and I have one girl and two boys. When we got married, we put them together and called us all family
🎨 I am an acrylic artist, but I love to play with watercolor, watercolor pencils, and color pencils.
🎨 When did I start learning to draw? I can remember being two and half years old, laying on my grandma kitchen floor, trying to draw the animal on her land.
🎨 Growing up, I have been able to explore many different mediums – Fabric Art, Crocheting, Oil Paint, Pen & Ink Painting and Color Pencils, Charcoal and Graphite Pencil. Along with acrylic painting.
🎨 Do you sell your work? Yes, I sell my originals, painting, drawing, and greeting cards online and in galleries.

🎨 Back in the early 2000, I had wanted to try my hand in plein air. In July 2013, I took the plug and never looked back.
🎨 Whether I’m in my studio or outdoors, I am still learning to draw upon those early influences in a way that I look at life, the subject I chooses and the matter in which I paints.
That came out great!
