Winter Warmth, Oil on Linen, 12x16
revised 3/29/11
This was painted last Saturday in Lebanon Hills Regional Park during an Open Air Painters of Minnesota paint out. I was looking forward to the camaraderie of painting with a group of plein air painters and comparing notes afterword. That was not the case however. Our location was a bit isolated and by the time we finished, everyone had left. We never saw another painter all day, although hikers who stopped to chat reported sitings. You have 2 more days to see the OPM exhibit at AZ Gallery in Saint Paul.
