What if you really hate your painting?

Took the Burlingame Plein Air Painters to Fort Baker - Point Cavallo today. Had a lovely day painting. And the icing on the cake was my sister, Jan, joining us to paint for her first time in 30  some odd years and first time in acrylics and first time outdoors (pretty much). She enjoyed it mightily and outdid me in quality painting too!

My pochade box slide froze again and I couldn't get to most of my painting supplies. Very frustrating, but in reality, it's not a good excuse for a mediocre painting.

Anyway, here it is:

Montara Redux

Back to Montara Light House with the group today. Large fun group, great scenery, but didn't like my painting. Had wanted to do another scene entirely. Given that it was on a cliff side with heavy winds, I didn't feel safe enough spreading out to paint from there. So I repeated a scene from 2 years ago; last time in watercolor (liked it better), this time in acrylic. It is what it is.....
