Great Meadows, Lexington,MA
"Plein Air"
I enjoy painting on site, but the logistics can be daunting. This was painted in the early spring as trees begin to bloom. New England forest begin with a red haze of blooms from the maples. Last year's marsh grass is still standing, golden.
I love the skeletal structure of the trees showing with fresh growth just coming out. Painted over a two day period, at the same time of day, in Egg Tempera and Ink. I would leave on the Minute Bike Trail about 9AM and would arrive at about 10AM, set up, paint for two hours. I started with the ink drawing of the trees and worked up the egg tempera from there. The size is 8" x 10".
