The second half of next weekend, Sunday, June 5, I’ll be participating in a plein air event just a few minutes from home – in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia.
I did this event last summer – you can read about it here. And I’ll let you in on something – though I said the painting was finished after the event – a few days later I took it out and did some more to it. It looked pretty similar, and yet – not! So that goes to show you that everything is subject to revision. Here’s the finished painting, and if you like, you can compare it to what I did on the plein air day.
Anyway, I had a great time, and I’m glad to be going back. I have a different location to paint this year – I’m at the top of the hill on Germantown Avenue, the 8600 block (last year I was in the 8300 block). If you are around, stop and say hello. I’ll be there (unless it rains, in which case there is a rain date of the next Sunday, June 12) from about 8 am to early afternoon.
I went back to your original post so I could compare and I like the additions you’ve made. What another great event you are involved in. I will have to check the calendar and see if we can make it along.

You know, Laura, see if you can get on the mailing list, it’s the Chestnut Hill Business Association, because I think you would enjoy participating in it. Just saying!

I might look into it. I’m not much of a landscape person though.

Thank you. I like this event even though plein air painting is not something I do too much of. And being close to home we do see a lot of people we know, that is nice.
