When Life Gives You Lemons

I was fortunate enough to take a workshop with Joe Gyurcsak down in Mathews County, VA at the Bay School. I was semi amuzed when he advised that we should all plan on painting two or three pieces each day of the workshop. I had to work up to it, but I did almost manage three on the third day. This was my second painting of the day: One of my fellow painters picked a location that placed her directly in full sun, but she popped up this bright lemon yellow umbrella to protect her work and herself from the sun. From a distance, it kind of reminded me of a lemonaid stand.
