Plein Air Watercolor, "October Light"

October Light  12 x 16 was painted along the back roads in the valley between Danville and just north of Livermore, I was supposed to go paint in the vineyards, but these backlit oaks were too exciting to pass by. A return to almost pure plein air, the early morning light made this a joy to paint in lavender and burnt orange.

Thank you Peggy, it was fun to paint because it was all there, I felt like all I had to do was edit what was in front of me.
