April thru mid-July is spent running weasel-boy to baseball practice and games….

A followed by D

Summer and spring are incredibly busy with family stuff and work (oddly enough for someone who works at a university)

We don't have seasons in my part of the world just different amounts of sunlight.

It's August at the moment, high summer for us (they tell us) and my hobby hut has its automatic frost protection on.

I paint for several hours every day regardless.

Texas Jack05 Aug 2015 11:18 a.m. PST

Usually C, but my painting mojo must have gone on holiday this year.

3 – My painting is not consistent but season of the year has no bearing.

Toronto4805 Aug 2015 12:11 p.m. PST

As Saber6 and Dynaman say I paint when I am in the mood to This should be a potential answer in any formal poll

Autumn. Kids are back at school then. I get very little painted in the summer because of the school holidays and vacations.

A winter time

I do more painting in spring and summer, B and C. I mostly paint on my back porch, much better light during the day and air circulation. I can glue things, prime and airbrush my basecoat much easier. This year I noticed my eyesight is just a tiny bit worse than it used to be, so I appreciate the extra light I get on the porch. I have a nice 100 watt bulb on my painting desk but it's just not positioned well enough so I wind up straining my eyes after an hour or so, really slows me down.

I'd have to say; Later winter & early spring (late A & early B). Pretty much just before spring thaw through the start of track season (and before all the spring farm chores).

Finknottle05 Aug 2015 1:34 p.m. PST

Baseball season…

Choctaw05 Aug 2015 1:59 p.m. PST

Spring and summer. I'm hunting the other seasons of the year.

Fall, the basement is still warm enough and not to humid for spray painting.
