I actually found the time to get outside yesterday and as a result I discovered a great area from which to paint. The day was beautiful, but just as I got set up the wind picked up. It wreaked havoc the entire time which cut things short and left me with a slightly hurried piece, but it was all worth it if not just for happening upon the location. It's a preserved desert island just down the freeway from me with clear views of the surrounding mountains and plenty of wild. I set up not 30yards from a hawk's nest in fact.
I hope to generate some good work out of the spot. I'm also devising a painting/camping trip soon. I will keep an eye on any paintings this time so they don't end up in the fire again.
