Collaborative Art with Friends

A couple of friends and I have started a collaboration art project.  We each are starting out with 3 panels/canvasses which we will all paint on, and then pass on to the next person.  So - each of us will paint on all 9 paintings, but we will all start some, and finish some (and do the middle part of some). I have started my first one in this project.  Here it is:

I have also started a few other paintings...

I am planning on taking a family camping trip to the SouthWest this summer - to do some outdoor painting in Arizona, New Mexico and Utah, so I have been feeling inspired by the landscapes & photography I have found online of many of the areas down there.  Really looking forward to this trip.  I am planning to do LOTS of painting (en plein air) while on the trip!
