Rainy Evening in Hereford
by Claudia Brookes on 6/9/2009 2:22:16 PM



Although I usually paint in oils during plein air competitions, 2 full days of pouring rain for the Gunpowder Falls Plein Air event  (www.GunpowderFallsPleinAir.com )  forced into my car to paint and made watercolor the better choice. With a watercolor board against the steering wheel and my paints and water on a beach towel on the passenger seat, I made the best of it, every so often running the wipers to clear my view. Hereford is a little town in the North Baltimore County area of Maryland, and I liked this view with overhead traffic lights and car lights reflected on the wet pavement.

I love this watercolor, Claudia. It's not only expressive, but somehow it feels just right - the square shape of it, the colors, the lines - the whole feeling of a rainy day on the street.
Thank you for sharing you work.
