So, yesterday was a dry run! Only, it was a rather wet run! Here in the UK we’ve had wonderful sunny weather ever since the end of August! Finally, what we’d call summer! It started of yesterday as a beautiful Sunday morning which was perfect for delivering my new painting to the gallery.
Once we arrived at our Plein air site it drizzled, stopped so we got going with our art trolley loaded! Rain, sun, suncream, sun hat, heavy rain! What I’m trying to say is that anything and everything you can think of could be needed! It does add to the build up and anticipation!
I had time to enjoy mixing a myriad of greens for the stunning garden but adding the blooms became a battle between a balancing act of paint, brushes, paper and an umbrella over it all and the trolley and another over us! The band showed up though, and happily seemed to play away under their awning.
So, I learned that all things are possible and just enjoy the comedy of flapping paper, pallets and umbrellas. Se la vie!
