Journal Group Paint "In"

We had to change our plans today as it was a day of sun, wind, clouds, rain, and HAIL. We were going to paint by the water at a yacht club in Tiburon. Thankfully, Sondra invited us inside her home ... she gathered a lot of interesting things to draw and paint and we got to "work". One of us painted a water scene looking out the window and the rest of us painted indoor objects.

I chose these things because I loved the colors, the colbalt blue of the glass bottle and the fun colors of the candle stick called to me... I went out on her deck and brought in a begonia plant to include in my still life. I need to work on my drawing skills... the candle stick and bottle are not correct but they still are good enough to remind me why I liked them well enough to put them on my page.

Part way through the morning we had a dramatic hail storm. I was very glad we chose to paint inside today.

Here are some of us with our show and tell.... it was a very fun and relaxed day with painting, sharing our creations and visiting.
