With Spring, comes plein air season. Anxious to get out early, this one is from my front garden. The phlox takes over and the colours are intense, demanding a loose approach. No overthinking. I paint all my plein air these days in gouache (so this is technically NOT watercolour) and there are wonderful panels that take these mediums well. I give them a wax varnish and no glass required!
