Christmas Lights oil 6"x6" landscape
I painted this two nights ago in the front yard looking down my street. I wanted to capture the Christmas lights before they were gone, not too much time left. I had a great environment around me. I had my clip on lights and all set up, then Mike brought the chiminea over by me and lit a fire. A nice cozy scene. I've never had it so good painting in cools weather, about 40 degrees. It was great. When I finished the painting, we sat in front of the fire and warmed up until the fire died down.
I hope to get some more done before the lights are gone. If I don't get out there right after dinner, it just doesn't seem to get done.
My online workshop, a 4 week session, is starting on Jan 9. The reviews have been really good from those that took my first session ending around Thanksgiving. I love it when people are happy. Hope to have some of you give it a try. Go to ArtWorkshopsOnline to see more about the workshop. I also have more information about my night time plein air setup on ArtWorkshopsOnline.

I really like your plein air Christmas light painting and hearing about your experience painting it. I love seeing Christmas lights especially after Christmas Day. I appreciate people who keep their lights on for the full 12 days of Christmas.
