Day 49: Under Construction

Day 49: Under Construction

Today was a beautiful day, foggy in the morning and then sunny all afternoon. Out of all the possibilities, I chose this tree in a construction zone to paint! Somehow it seemed like the thing to paint today, even with the whole wide city of Florence out there. Sometimes it’s easier to just pick one thing and do that, especially with a small canvas to work with, then I don’t have the chance to get overwhelmed.It was still chilly but finally the sun came out, and it seemed like the entire city of Florence was outside today. I think part of the reason I chose this spot is that it is fenced off and I had to walk down a ditch and under a bridge to get here, so it was a little secluded haven in the middle of the throngs of people enjoying the sunny day. Either way I hope that this is a sign of spring to come.I hope you’re having good weather wherever you are, it’s always seems to feel lucky to have good weather on the weekend!Talk to you tomorrow, and as always I have no idea what tomorrow will bring..You can buy this painting for $100 here from my website or view other paintings from the 100 day project hereAll paintings cost $100 (+ $15 shipping), are 6×8″, painted on birch and unframed.You can share this project with someone you know by reccomending them to subscribe to the daily E Newsletter here or they can follow the Blog site here.
