This is down on the river bank by the Old Fort Park. The sea grape is leafing out with its bright leaves, I love how the sun shines through them like stained glass. Very windy and chilly, the painting was started and blew down on my palette right after I started so I had a line of dots on the bottom of the painting, it was fun to work with some un-planned colors. Then on the photo below, I was about half finished and you can see the tide is washing over my easel's feet. I somehow moved fast enough so I didn't get my feet wet.
