This departure from my smaller Parkway paintings was done on location with a group of plein air painters with whom I am working. The 20 x 24 size was a challenge especially for plein air painting! However the view of the Peaks of Otter range of mountains in the background and the feel of summer sunlight on the yellow grasses in the foreground rekindled the excitement I feel being a part of the landscape I am painting. I have one more "on location" painting to complete in the studio before returning to my series of Smokey Mountain scenes.
