Sunshine Cove + Gesso-ing

 

The other day my friend Barbara (Be) and I went out to a quiet little place called Sunshine Cove. 

We painted. Here are a couple of shots of that day.

 My start.

 Be's start. (She just received her regular, non-transition glasses so she can see her paint colors when we go to Colorado to attend our plein air painting workshop.) I will try to blog about that as it happens in June.

I have been reading Show Your Work! and will talk about the next chapter tomorrow, if there is time (Be and I are going painting).

These final photos are of the gesso going on the three canvases for the big triptych! 

I will use at least two or three more coats of gesso.
