. . . I painted this view of the buildings across the street next. I started with a simple contour line on the left of the card and worked my way across. I kept reminding myself to not get fussy, and not notice too much detail. Then I spent some time painting.
While I painted a woman who was sitting at a lobby sofa next to mine came up to talk with me. She had been spending the morning with her husband and son waiting out the rain, waiting to hear if their elder son's college baseball match would be held. (Isn't it too early for baseball? I often mishear things.) We had a good chat and I heard all about her German Shorthair Pointer and her goldfish Rambo. Together the two paintings of the water towers make an interesting statement about my hand-eye coordination on that Sunday morning. |
