Save The Queen, 10 x 8
SOLD
Hello, everybody. My postings have been few and far between the last several weeks, but they will be back on a more regular schedule beginning with this post. This piece was done in Bryan on Saturday, as part of Plein Air Austin's participation in a promotional paintout put on by the Forsythe Gallery. The Forsythe is presently exhibiting the work of PAA members through July 31 and they invited us down to join in with locals interested in trying their hand at painting en plein air. The turnout was good and we all enjoyed the trip. Bryan is undergoing a renaissance of its downtown area and they are fortunate to have many wonderful old buildings to work with. The Queen theater is one of its most unique and one most in need of repair. I was happy to hear the city has recently secured funding for the restoration of this magnificent structure.

welcome back!
the paint is as always a good work
Few and far between, but worth the wait, welcome back! Love this painting, especially the composition...I really like the sky space and the fact that it compliments the top of the cars space. I think you took a risk cutting the cars in half, it introduces tension...in a good way.
Strong painting,wonderful composition. So glad to have you as part of the Daily Painter Originals.
