I went back after lunch and had a tough time painting yesterday afternoon. The wind was very gusty and strong. So I just did a 30 min. study of a tree.

About the Artist
- Carolyn Jean Thompson
- Reno, NV, United States
- Welcome to my art blog! This is where I share my explorations and learning experiences in pastel, watercolor and oil painting. I have had this blog for about six or more years. I am currently entering many national and regional juried art shows. I have a website and sell my work from there as well. I started a group called Reno Tahoe Plein Air Painters a year ago and it has grown to about 40 active painters! Each year brings new challenges and exciting opportunities. I have made many friends among other art bloggers and enjoy visiting their blogs. I hope you enjoy your visit here, and click on the links to my website and the plein air painters to see more!

I fell in love with this tree straight away.
My grandmother was an oil painter and somewhere in all my boxes are pictures she did of the Torrey Pines trees. They have captured hearts for years. I envy you and my grandmother.
Yes, these trees are very beautiful. This park reminds me a little bit of Point Lobos near Carmel, California, with their windswept Monterey Cypress trees.
