Sunset at the Depot Oil on panel, 14x11 purchase here |
My second painting of this day in Parkville, the historic depot was my subject. The weather has been so warm and balmy - especially for October, that it was a joy to set up my easel and paint. I chose a spot in the shade of an old tree to start my painting. Having to shift only once to stay in the shade, I saved the sky for last. I wanted to capture the last color before it dropped below the horizon - and that light is so very fleeting! And, yes - that fountain is true blue - is support of our Kansas City Royals going to the World Series!! I think every fountain in town in blue, now! So exciting! After this painting, I went on to paint a nocturne on Main Street! This is painting number 662 in as many days :)
