Cloudy Morning with Emily

I invited my cousin’s wife to come paint with me one morning over 4th of July weekend and she said- “Yes!”  It was fun to introduce her to painting plein air and to have a buddy at sunrise in the park.  We set up near this bridge.  It was a gloomy morning and I was waiting and hoping the whole time that the sun would shine through and illuminate the scene.
