San Antonio Botanical Gardens

This is a plein air painting done at the San Antonio Botanical Gardens last fall. It was such a lovely day that we ended up staying until it was almost dark. I did a second painting from the opposite side of the lake that turned out rather disappointing. Oh, well. You can't win 'em all!

Thank you, Virginia. It was a very limited palette-the three primaries, plus white. Amazing the range of colors one can get with just those! A plein air painter's dream!
