Sat out at the pool house today painting palm trees that I can see. 
It was 106 with the heat index or I might have painted more. 
Number 2. Not a bit better Maybe worse. I was using my perla brush held sideways to do the leaves.
Number 3 and my favorite. I used a dagger brush in the palm fronds. And my 10 Charles Reid sable on the trunk.
Number 4 I think.
Like the last two the best. And I like the ground in both. However I could use more palm practice. Lots more.
Trunk cerulean and burnt sienna. Palm – quin gold, cad yellow, cad red, cerulean, ultramarine, burnt sienna and umber.
Paper superaquabee 6×12″
Same colors in the grass.
