Kingwood Fountain - 12" x 9" oil on canvas panel

This was painted this past Saturday as part of a scheduled paintout with OPAS. There was a good bunch of artists there on a day where the sun came out and it was nice but got a little windy. I tried starting this painting on a dark background. It was kind of like pulling light out of the darkness. You had to go pretty thick with the paint right away. I had to leave early to go to my son’s baseball game but I wish I could have stayed to see what other fellow artists had created. Hopefully they will get something up on their web site soon. I am thoroughly looking forward to the next gathering. I enjoy getting out on my own too but there is something special about the camaraderie and feedback from fellow artists. See you next time.
