En Plein Air: Mrs. Foster's Bull and Drive (Oil, 12 x 12)

I had not been to Mrs. Foster's farm for almost a year. This morning I decided to go to her place on Highway 78. She was kind and happy as she always was when she saw me. She gave me a welcome hug and then let me walk around her farm to select my subject. I stood in the shade of her barn and painted the bull. He didn't stay long but left the haystack in twenty minutes, so I had to embellish my work from memory. After I wrapped it up, I used a brand new panel to paint her drive. Overall, I like the color scheme and the composition.
