One evening - three paintings

Image
I did these paintings on the beach of Costa da Caprica last Sunday evening between 7pm and 9pm. I had to paint really fast as the light condition was changing every minute! I will post better quality images later. Just wanted to show you these three paintings all together. I finished the last one (bottom right) when the setting sun has almost gone...

AITO 2016 Plein Air Festival

Image
I have just come back home from Ireland where I have taken part in the Art in the Open 2016 plein air festival. It's been a fantastic week! I have met so many nice people and beautiful artists, made some great friends, gave two workshops and won Bronze! I will be posting the paintings I have done in Ireland and the photographs from our Paint Outs during the next week or two. Some of the photographs will be published only on my facebook page, so if you want to see how the festival looked like please follow me on facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/lena.rivo These are the 6 pieces I put in the exhibition. I am delighted to have received a bronze award for my painting of Wexford Quay! The Bronze winner.
