The EPA's Building on Meeker Slough

The white Environmental Protection Agency's building can be seen near the horizon in this 15 x 30" oil I painted with the group back in February. It took me a while to decide the floating trash on the Meeker Slough should be a part of this painting, so I didn't scrape it from the foreground.

Spring at the Albany Bulb

What a wonderful morning at the Albany Bulb.  We could paint there for a long time if the weather holds. So often it is too windy. We will go back next week.  This came together just at the end when I was able to remove most of the details of the view.    Karen
