I did some plein air work this weekend and the last weekend too at Lalbaugh. I am posting the outcome. Some okay, some not so okay. Anyway here they are. But its always great fun to paint outdoors.
I also realized that for some tricky compositions I needed to have a view finder. Hopefully I'll have one next time. And being a not so organized person I always end up forgetting something or the other. I think a checklist will of help. Those, who do not score very high on being organized must have a checklist for plein air painting I guess. Imagine if you forget your pad or your brushes.
Happy painting..

wonderful work!
Very nice, Prabal.....I've yet to try plein air painting but I do have my checklist ready for that special day.
lovely! I have just started painting with watercolors and was wondering what paper you used . Do you stretch your paper before painting?
Beautiful, uplifting scenes Prabal! :0)
Gorgeous work Prabal! I think my favorite is the third one down, I love the way you paint reflections. :) And, I think we should start a club for Unorganized Artists Anonymous because I am the same way!
May,
Thank you for the visit and comment. I appreciate it.
Carol,
You must go outdoors. Its a lot of fun and very uplifting.
Bhargavi,
I used fabriano watercolor pad. Since the sheets are stuck to each other there was no need to stretch the paper. In fact it cant be done for a pad. :)
Sandra,
I hope it made you happy. :)
Crystal,

All the paintings are beautiful ... some days back I went to Lalbaugh. I can make out what are the places in ur paintings.. Really it is nice to see those in paintings ...
I love all 4 of these watercolors, Prabal.. Beautiful work, as always.
