Near Somis, California in the lemon groves 1-17-09
Where else but in Southern California can you go painting outdoors in January and have the weather be 85 degrees and sunny? Craig and I and Dorota (a friend of Craig's from Disney) went out a couple of miles beyond Moorpark and painted these great lemon sheds. It was such a great day with bicyclists, horse riders and a few others going down the road enjoying being outside. We were really left to ourselves other than an occasional greeting.
I did these on a 9x12 block of 140 lb. Fabriano cold pressed paper with traditional water colors. We just took the morning to paint and were back home around 1:30pm.

Those are both great pieces, but for some reason I like the first one the best. I think it's the position of the tower relative to the other structures. Very cool.
Thanks, Ev.
SUPERB!
I like these two a lot!
Thanks, Evan, Stephane and Christy!
