5th & E

5th & E

I was drawn to this scene because of the interesting shapes and layers.. or maybe it was the red/green thing this time of year!  Sage words from my teachers came to me. "Look for the larger shapes." "Draw with the paint." It has the grey day light effect.. which tends to be warmer overall, especially in the shadows. Painting on location.. it began to drizzle and I had to run and put up my painting sun-brella to keep the painting dry and finish it.  ¡Felicas Fiestas!
