One a Week: 29

Today, I took an adventure...a watercolor adventure, that is. I ventured all the way out to Chadds Ford, Pa.  I even unwittingly crossed the state line into Delaware while I was lost in the winding hills looking for Kuerner Farmhouse.

The Philadelphia Watercolor Society hosted a plein air painting day there today, so I went. This farm is a place that the famed Andrew Wyeth painted many, many times. I'm not sure if he ever worked with this vantage point though. Can you spot the PWS members working merrily away?

It was a bit of a reconnaissance mission since I am teaching a plein air painting class at the Abington Art Center this summer. Info here. I worked out a few kinks and now have my system back up and running! 

This painting is larger than most of my other weekly posts. "Kuerner Farm" is 8 x 10 inches and I can't believe that 3 whole hours passed while I was working on it...time flies!
