So said Paul Fortis as he posted this shot of his setup at Garrapata State Park on Facebook.
The roughly 3,000-acre park is in between Carmel and Big Sur on the Monterey coast. The Santa Cruz, California, artist finds much great subject matter in colorful California … but some scenes are clearly better than others
Way to go, Bruce!
Congratulations, Bruce – I’m originally from Nova Scotia, and now a plein air painter living in Maine. I enjoy hearing about artists from the Maritimes – just returned from ten days painting in Brigus, Newfoundland – spectacular!
How can you put such bad paintings in your online mag. The guy has no clue on how to paint.
Fantastic Bruce!! Cannot wait to see more of your work ONLINE MAG ! Keep up the great work.
Fantastic Bruce!! Beautiful work… Cannot wait to see more of your work! Keep up the great work.
Jack, you sound like a bitter old man. I don’t profess to be the world’s greatest painter and, in fact, that’s irrelevant in the context of this article. The point is that I love plein air painting and hope to spread the “gospel”. Surely, all aspiring plein air painters can fit under the [I]Plein Air Magazine[/I] umbrella, can’t they?
What a pleasant surprise to see this, Bruce. Keep up the good work. “U Pick” looks like the painting you did when we were in Vermont.
