Self Portrait en Plein Air

oil on canvas sketchbook paper

Normally don't do self portraits, but that's the Daily Paintworks challenge this week, so tackled this from a photo my husband took of me painting en plein air. Remember when we were younger and talked of older people as "blue hairs"...OMG, I looked at this painting and realized that I R 1 !!!!

    Ann, It's so good to see you painting so much. I didn't notice anything blue :):)
    I used to think that only old ladies loved flowers. Guess what! I think flowers are awesome now! I enjoyed the self portrait and a good likeness too.

    Ann, I see you paint with your sunglasses on like I do. I forgot to take mine off once and then realized it didn't seem to make any difference in my colors. Great jog by the way and it looks like you are having fun!
