Another possibility for about.com July/August abstracted urban painting project
Last month I was sitting outside The Steaming Cup having a cup of coffee with a friend, in downtown Waukesha http://steamingcupwaukesha.com , when we saw these men fixing up the building next door. So I took some pictures. I am very fascinated with men at work.
Downtown Waukesha has some really interesting and excellent buildings to paint. I think maybe we should do a plein air there. There's a gallery right across the street from the Steaming Cup.
Regarding this picture, I wonder if I should make the upper right darker so there's more focus in the center of the picture. My pictures so far are better viewed at a distance rather than close up. I really like oil pastels, the way they feel, even if you do have to save the whites.

Nice job, Kathy! Your vacation seems to have helped your art. Just imagine what a trip to Texas will do for your art!
