Another bright and
beautiful day to enjoy
with my painting friends

 In sharp contrast to yesterday's wind and rain storm, today dawned  clear and bright. Our Plein Air group was meeting at 10 AM in Gateway Park, so I was grateful for the beautiful morning. 

We parked in the same area, then dispersed to various locations overlooking the Colorado River. 

I set myself up just east of the Interstate 8 bridge overhead. I looked west towards California to complete my pencil sketch of a portion of the river and the bridge above. 

L set up her easel just above me. She was taking the view to the east of the Ocean to Ocean Bridge and the railway bridge beside it. L was working in acrylics today. 

B moved to the east side of the railway bridge to get a shoreline view of the river. She had her pastels today. 

R put her easel up halfway down the slope from the parking area. She was working in watercolor. 

I took myself home for noon. I have two more basket blocks to complete. I'd like to get them done today.
