Snow Hill Paint Out – Day 3
When I asked Betty if she knew where there was a “gnarley” tree, she said, “Yes”. She had found one yesterday and it was by the river! We agreed to meet there at noon. (And, by the way, she never found a wisteria tree yesterday).
When I arrived, I found two other friends already painting. The giant cypress tree was close enough to the river that I could include it in my landscape painting. I found an appealing view and set up my easel.
Betty found an interesting setting with the river and a wisteria tree nearby. Wisteria has a lovely lavender blossom, somewhat larger than a lilac and looks lovely in a spring painting.
A picnic was planned for our group from 3-5 PM at Sturgis Park, also on the river. It was good to visit with other painters we had not seen since last summer or fall.
