Another day Painting in Old Town Manassas
Posted by Rob Burkhard under Drawing, En plein air, Events, Paint! Manassas, Painting, Watercolor on Thursday May 8, 2008It rained today. I started off with Selina, from the Manassas Art Guild, in Clifton Virginia and I fully intended to finish my Old Clifton General Store painting. Did I mention that it rained today? No sooner did I get my french easel set up and it started again
As a back up plan we went to Old Town Manassas and painted en plein air under the old train station. I did a very wet-in-wet impressionist painting of Fosters Grille and other stores across the tracks. I will let is dry for a few days then go back into it with an 8B pencil to really bring out some hard lines.
Selina went to work drawing some sketches of the Candy Factory. Both of us are gearing up for the official kick off of Paint! Manassas 2008 on Saturday
