I’ve been looking forward to this for a while – painting outside! We finally got a huge umbrella to cover the patio, so the other day, when the weather was beautiful, I grabbed my stuff and set up outside. Being outside gives me the opportunity to paint “live,” as opposed to from a picture, which is what I usually do. I think it’s harder and I need the practice.
I’m opposite – I find painting from nature easier than painting from photos, though maybe I just don’t have good enough photos – I feel that they don’t have enough detail, specially when it comes to colour.
