The location that inspired Happy Rabbit Brush was a sunlit meadow filled with dead grasses and flanked with large trees. These two healthy bushes growing off to the side looked so happy… they just cried out to be featured. Some of the rules of plein air painting are, simplify, simplify, rearrange, punch up the color, simplify some more, and most of all ... capture a mood. This was a demo for my plein air class.
