Summer Plein Air painting in Whytecliff Park in West Vancouver

On a gorgeous summer day Janice Robertson organized a group to paint outdoors at Whytecliff Park in west Vancouver... a great plein-air day... really hot so the paint on the palette dried super quickly!

I painted the view shown in this photo and ended up with this beach scene...( basically I cropped and  focused on  the top part of the  scene)

another view of my easel with a different rock... a fellow appeared on the rock suddenly and I discovered an instant focal point....  this is a work in progress!
