  3. Hello,

    I just saw the Santa Isabel gallery show. I think Late Light's color palette struck me most.

    I'm curious, do you do your paintings plein air, using photo reference, or a combination of the two?

    Beautiful work, the photos don't do them justice.

  4. Amber, thanks for the compliments on my work! The pieces in the show at Santa Ysabel are a combination of studio and plein air. When I work in the studio I use photographic reference for the color but even then, much of it is from memory. The painting, 'Late Light' was done in the studio, but from a spot where I have painted on location many times.
    I've painted the area so many times that the outdoor painting experience is becoming more useful to me than photographic reference.
