Plein Air @ Alameda and studio visiting of Nancy Crookston
Early morning I drove to the Park St bridge location and painted there. It was my first time painting at the location. Several other artists came. They checked out two different locations before painting. I realized the scene was a little complicated, so I tried to simplify it.
Lan, one of female artist that lives in Alameda, she prepared a delicious lunch for us, some of us contributed some food as well. I didn't know that there was a critique time. My watercolor painting was next to the other artists, especially the master painters. They were all very nice give me enough encouragement and professional advice.
Visited Nancy Crookston's studio, we were all inspired by her amazing and productive artwork, and her collection. I especially love her drawings, and felt bad I couldn't manage my time to produced more art.
