Painting a Painter "en plein air"

I finally finished this painting (and posted in on my website), Regina Painting Church Garden, after working on it off and on since late June. I usually don't do this with paintings executed on site, and for good reasons, which I experienced with this one! The sun's angle became steeper, most of the flowers had finished blooming, and I never got to coordinate with Regina (one of my studiomates) again. However, that bright blue bicycle was there every time I went! Regina Painting Church Garden.500
