Day One - Purple, Green and Orange

Day one of a plein air workshop with Kevin MacPherson in Sedona.   The limited palette was purple, orange, green (and white).   It was a great day starting with lecture and a demo and then we got to put our easels up at four o'clock.  The sun disappeared two hours later.  I managed to block in the shapes, values and color notes.  Kevin MacPherson is one of the best contemporary impressionist painters and a very good instructor - I am thrilled to be taking his workshop.  He and his wife, Wanda, make a great team and what a great sense of humor and attitude they both have!
