A great turnout for our Tuesday morning plein air painting session at Wilder Ranch in Santa Cruz – at least 8 to 10 of the group painted together in the old farm house garden. The House Martins were tending their babies and we were tending our paintings. It was hot! Unusual for Santa Cruz and the coast. Roses, foxgloves and daylilies were all blooming. Everyone got at least one good painting done. This painting outing felt very special to me as it was my first outing in a while…..Plein Air Joy:)
