Plein Air Painting Day at Cromford, Derbyshire

I went out painting en plein air at Cromford, Derbyshire yesterday.  It was quite a challenge as it is not something I normally do.  I really enjoyed it though and plan to go out more often to paint in the landscape, especially now the weather is improving.  Here are the paintings - both of the same scene with different coloured grounds.

So sorry I haven't written a post for ages - I will try and post more regularly and I am thinking of creating and posting a painting a day for the next month.  I don't know how realistic this will be but I can give it a try.  In the meantime, here are a few pictures from my exhibition at The Erewash Museum, Ilkeston, Derbyshire which runs from 7-28 May 2015.
