Just loved the sky.... Dianne Lorden

I'm very impressed with all of your determination to get out there this fall and work in the open air - great job to everyone! I've wanted to, and we've had great weather, but the timing has just not been there for me. So, I thought I'd share this en plein air pastel I created over the summer, done from the deck of our beach house, in Southern Shores, on the Outer Banks, N.C. You'd never know there was a storm on the way - it was just beautiful out! This painting is currently on exhibit at Brath & Hughes Fine Art, Mechanicsburg, Pa.
