Return to Painting after a Brief Hiatus

Following a week of A.P. Art History at the Institute, it was nice to pick up the brush again on this hot Saturday morning. I drove the one-hour journey to Hillsboro, and set up outside Burson Gallery. The temperature climbed to 103, but I remained in the shade, and a heavenly breeze made the project durable. I began this composition on location on Business Hwy. 287 in Decatur, about 2-3 weeks ago. Now, thanks to a Hillsboro quiet, it is nearly complete. Time to move on to other half-finished works . . .
