camera as a tool to avoid "REAL PAINTING"

WHAT WAS I THINKING?
"Plein aire?"..wasn't thinking. drawn to the idea of floating around the Fetzer Institute's lovely grounds for a week with lovely lunches served at one's leisure. i did manage a couple of little postcard sized images with my oil sticks...which i will pick up today. and had plenty of weather! and some good demonstrations. and lots of angst over my inexperience.
aw. another lifetime. i'm just a photo junkie and dis-co fan right at the moment, at least!!

  1. Neva! your photos are brilliant! sorry the plein aire was not all that you thought or didn't think it would be! I think you might wanna eliminate the word, "just" from your vocabulary!! your pix are visually chewy!!
