OPS Paint Out:
I'm leaving at 6:00 AM tomorow for an Ennis/Waxahachie paint out with the OPS (Outdoor Painters Society), just south of Dallas. The OPS is a great group of people whom I enjoy painting with. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate and we'll be able to paint the beautiful scenery including bluebonnets, our Texas state flower. I'm taking my camera and laptop, but I may not be able to post until I return home on Sunday...considering I have something good enough to post.

BRENHAM BLUE oil on canvas on board, 8x10

Still in LaNell Arndt's studio in downtown Brenham on Saturday, I painted this from a photo taken by Marchita Priest. We didn't see very many bluebonnets--guess we were a little early.

Saturday evening, we all met and showed our paintings from the past 2 days and then went to dinner together in a nearby restaurant.
