| This is the scene for The Farmer's Orchard painting. I think these are apple trees...but I may be wrong because they were in blossom before the large orchards of apple trees across the street. Of all the years I have been painting in this area, I have never painted this viewpoint with the barn behind the trees. I like it. |

Oh, my dream, to sit at my easel in the middle of a field and paint the day away!
Yes, it is a wonderful feeling that engages all the senses. With the sun shining on you and breeze can be nice too. As long as it doesn't get too windy! Plein air painting can sometime be a challenge, but worth it.
