Those Were The Days
original rural America watercolor: 14"w x 11"h
Plein Air
Sophie and I
Are painting plein air
Under bright sunny skies
On a day so fair
Confident and serene
We apply the sunscreen
Then get right to work
As we quench our paper’s thirst
With lots of water, that’s our technic
‘Cause happy accidents are what we seek!
Bleeding colors, water marks
Lights contrasting with darkest darks...
Working quickly, we’re in a hurry
(We try not to worry
Will this be a keeper
Or one we will bury?)
Well, Sophie girl
What do you think
She nodded and smiled
And gave me a wink!
