Description
The rain had ended. The northerly winds and colder air were on their way but for a while, the plein air conditions were terrific. The water was calm. The spring birds were playing the background music. Canada geese were landing in a talking up a storm as well. The geese were staking out chunks of ice in anticipation of the nesting season. There were several large flocks of geese flying overhead and they were chattering happily and very pleased to be arriving back home. The nature of Singleton Lake is really quite inspiring.
The precipitation edge deformation zone was still evident overhead as the storm pulled away slowly to the east. The blue sky on the ridge was on the southwestern horizon. As I painted, the northerly breeze started to develop and shredded streets of turbulent stratocumulus were developing.
Plein air encourages me to just lay in the facts in terms of shapes and colours. I can see the details but frankly, they are not needed and just get in the way.

GREAT! Love the light green at the bottom...so interesting with the pink coral contrast in the sky and then the eye sort of ends up in the center of the deeper coral horizontal next to the brighter creamy white. Amazing how the composition flows from shape to shape to color and around again. Delightful, Phil Chadwick! L/F/Pinterest
Phil Chadwick replied:
You caught on to something I actually try to do... guide the eye but keep the viewer within the frame. The time allows one to think and maybe enter the scene for themselves. Sometimes this approach works. Thank you so much for taking the thoughtful time to really get into the painting!
