After I carried the first painting outside, I just grabbed the next canvas in the lineup. It is an unusual view of the Honeymoon Cabin, which is a tiny museum for the Mineral King Preservation Society. It is either the 2nd or the 3rd best selling subject of Mineral King oil paintings.
I carried this one out to the woodpile, nay, wood stack because it is so very neat, and put it alongside the first painting. Two down, four to go, and only one more day to paint. What’s a Central California Artist to do?
Put the palette and brushes in the freezer, and go home for the evening, that’s what.
Both paintings were dry enough to take to Silver City 2 days after painting them.
The saga of a Mineral King oil painting biathalon will continue tomorrow.
