First Bali painting

I have had an amazing few days, but I think that I'm back on track now. My intention was to paint en plein air every day for a year. I did not expect to be thirty six hours in transit, with all my painting gear checked through and inaccessible. Nor that I would be locked away for eight hours in the Brisbane transit lounge, unable to get outside.

I arrived at midnight in Bali. The first thing I did before I crashed was to unpack my gear. The first thing I did when I woke the next morning (ok, the second thing) was to walk out onto my room's deck.

This is the painting I did before breakfast.



15124. "View from my Deck. Bali" oil on panel. 6x8 in. $100
