Moovelously Lynden

Last night, I enjoyed a wonderful evening of plein air painting at Lynden Sculpture Garden's annual educational fundraiser.  My animal theme continued since I painted the Bremen musicians sculpture last year, I decided on the cows this year. 
This is the first time cows have ever stood still for me!  And they came in an assortment of unique colors.  It was a ton of fun and I met so many wonderful people.  (Stu, I am planning to see you painting the streets of Cedarburg next year!).
While painting, I was visited by a cedar waxwing that would sometime land within inches of my easel.  And, a massive frog also kept a close eye on all the comings and goings.
My photo of the painting is not so great as I was rushing to get this framed and to the auction table.  Thank you to the collector!  Here's a recap of the evening.
