Reply to comment by bunkerbash in Figured I should paint East Hampton’s Cranberry Bog one last time before the cold weather sets in! by bunkerbash
That's the big challenge with landscape painting right on the spot. Everything changes constantly. The Impressionists dealt with the same thing. I haven't worked that way in a long time, and I may have to start again, inspired by what you're doing.
Part of it for me will be 'just getting started,' as in trying not to be too picky about a scene before starting. Out on the Cape I've seen painters a lot of times just sort of in front of anything, and the scene doesn't look super perfect -- and I think it's likely because if I wait for the too perfect I'll never find it, just talk myself out of starting. fwiw. Any advice?
Anyway thanks for the inspiration.
