Looking for a scene to paint is sometimes compromised by conditions. It was shady on the hill across from the parking lot where I did some sketches. There was no place that looked more accommodating so I continued right where I started. I took a photo after painting to show how I edited the scene. The challenge is to mix up lots of different greens. Everything is green. The water feature on the green belt is also green with algae but I cleaned it up in my painting. Even in the shade it still was very hot but no bugs and no-one out walking. I guess all the dogs are exercised early on these kind of days. "Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun".
