Here are some work-in-progress shots from last Friday, when I painted out in Middletown
I walked around the park a little before I left. In one spot, where they are doing construction, I had fun looking around the unearthed chunks of broken limestone for fossils. There were lots of them. I brought some home to show the girls.
It a little thrilling to think that these ancient signs of life--from when, 300 million years ago?—remained completely hidden and preserved in remarkable detail, and then accidentally unearthed, and I was the first person ever to lay eyes on them.
I think I also located one or two former house sites that I could metal detect.
Love the painting! Do you have people stop to watch you paint or look at your painting? Also, the fossil rock is neat. I bet the girls liked seeing that.
ReplyDeleteYeah, quite a few cars drove by slowly so the occupants could take a look, and a few people stopped for conversation.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting. I love when I see an artist out painting. I always want to see what he or she is painting.
