"Pink Tractor," 10"h x 8"w, oil, ©Jill Banks 2011, private collection |
With all the beautiful scenery passed ... I didn't take a single photo. Saw lots of cows and sheep, and I'd love to return to the towns of Waterford and Leesburg to paint on the streets. The architecture and gardens are beautiful!
Tomorrow I'm joining some fellow members of Great Falls Studios (a consortium of about 100 artists who live or work in Great Falls, VA) to paint on Laura Nichols (President of Great Falls Studios and a potter) farm. Guinea hens, goats, farm equipment, chicks ... await.
"Pink Tractor" seems like a good way to represent today and tomorrow ... sans photos from my road trip.
