9"x12"
oil/canvas
Headed out this morning with a plan of doing a 16x20 view of Harrisburg from the west shore. The park was closed so couldn't take the van in. Drove around a bit and ended up in a business for sale parking lot with a great view of the river and the capitol."yeah, it's a sketch and I have a hard time seeing the dome too. And I painted it!" Anyway, the light was changing fast so I had a 9x12 in the van and mixed rapidly and sketched this. I didn't quite get the light but felt good about freedom of brushstroke. I may do a purple/yellow complementery color larger piece from this study. The backlit scene was really nice and want to capture it. At any rate I found a new place to paint.

Wow. Give you a 9 x 12 and some fading light, and just look what happens. Slam, bam, thank you ma'am!
That's kinda how it felt. My paint started to freeze and skies, they were a changin'.Should of fired up the flame thrower but really felt pressed for time. I'm not sure what direction my work is taking but we'll find out more tomorrow.
