Duck Pond, Freedom Park, Charlotte, NC (sold)


9x11, oil on canvas panel

I painted this last Tuesday with the Plein Air Buds, the wonderful group I paint with each week.  It looked rather picturesque when I got it home, and I was not happy with it as I don't really love "postcard pretty" paintings.  I worked on it some more and hope that it now captures attention for paint application and not the subject matter.

 
A close up just to show some of the paint texture.
 
 
It was a cloudy day, and the sun did not even peek out until we had packed up and gone for lunch!  Here's a photo of what we saw.
