University Farm - Oil on Board - 9" x 12"

This painting is plein air and was done at the University of Ariziona Farm which is in the middle of town believe it or not. One of the concepts I have to keep reminding myself about is "simplicity". Often times I am overwhelmed with what is around me and try to paint very complex scenes. The lesson in plein air is to go for simplicity. I think I have achieved that in this painting.

Saw this jewel of a painting when you were highlighted as "Artist of the Day" today at Daily Painters Ring. The light and atmosphere are superb... I have bookmarked your site to enjoy on a regular basis.
