Rainy Day Strategies for Wayne Plein Air

"Main Line Station," oil, 20"h x 16"w, copyright Jill Banks 2012
This HAS to be a short post ... so I can go to sleep and rest up for a very full day tomorrow. Today was the first painting day for Wayne Plein Air ... and this morning it poured. All last night I was trying to think about the locations to visit today and even on the car en route, I was flip-flopping. The destination for the rainy morn turned out to be under cover outside at the Wayne Train Station ... looking in on the cafe.  This painting is prettier than it looks here. That will probably be true all week as my photography set ups are haphazard. Tomorrow night there will be no time to post ... but that just means more to tell you about later in the week.

There was another destination for this afternoon. A rather breathtaking farm. And, rather doesn't apply. Again, more later on that.
