I worked on two plein air paintings at home - doing finishing touches. The first one didn't need much - just the upper left tree. The creek painting, however, needed a lot of work. So much so, I probably can't call it a plein air painting, although it started out as one.
Running water fascinates and challenges me. I suppose if I painted it often enough, I could paint it en plein air in two hours and have it look completed. Some day....with a lot of work....
