Plein Air @ Almaden Lake Park SanJose CA


My first time painting at this location.  A hot day, arrived a little early, but I realized that there wasn't any easy subject for me to paint.


Did not want to waste the trip, so I dragged my painting gear and walked a while, then decided to paint from this angle.  Not enough variety of features to make the scene exciting but at least there were some white birds on the water.

It was quite a annoying with so many bees buzzing around me.  I checked and cleaned up my paints in case they were attracting them.  

After my painting was done and returned home, I started to wash my painting cloths.  Hopefully there won't be anything to attract insects next time. (August 28 2023)
