Original Watercolor Painting, “Plein Air, Rain at Lincoln Park by Ferry dock, 12:30 -1:30pm, 9.25.23”, watercolor, 22 x 30”, 2023

Lincoln Park is one of my favorite locations to paint “en plein air”, literally “in the open air”, outside, from life.  It was raining while I painted this, from under a covered bbq station near the ferry terminal.  I was intrigued by the rich color available even on the “gray”-est of Seattle days in the rain.  I enjoy the practice of not waiting for the “ideal” conditions to paint.  The exercise of painting in the rain can be fruitful, too.
