Sketching at the Winery

Here is a little travel/workshop sketch. I went on a day trip to Bernardo Winery in San Diego with my artist friend Alice Picado to take a painting workshop taught by Shuang Li. I am still learning to put enough value range in my plein air watercolor painting. While my fellow Urban Sketcher Lydia Velarde sketched some flowers when she was there, the landscape I painted had bare vines since it was not a grape harvest season. I still enjoyed the crisp winter day, when Southern California was lush with greenery after the rain.
