Loved Clair class. I'm a working artist myself, so I couldn't quite do it as Clair does it, since I have my own "way" of painting (I did try, but it was mess :)) but I'm grateful for the inspiration and challenge to paint a landscape. I grew up in the city in Costa Rica and live on the beach in the United States now, and most of my work is either seascapes or cityscapes, it was time I painted a landscape ;). 

I used my own reference photo of a Costa Rican rural scene (taken from the internet).

 

Thanks for the class!
