San Antonio Riverwalk

I've been wanting to paint this scene for a few years. My son lives in San Antonio and we visit the Riverwalk when I fly down, so I have a number of good pictures. In this view I wanted to keep the focus on the bridge and have the tree in the middle ground as my secondary area of interest. I love the shape of the tree.

Fayette, Ohio

I had a booth at the Fayette Fall Fest this year and sold some coach prints. I painted this street scene while I sat there. it was a beautiful day- low 70's and sunny with a s light breeze. Everyone was buzzing about the economy and not too many people were spending money so I guess i was fortunate to sell anything. The mayor was going to buy this when she saw it in her early stages but then she backed out at the end of the day, admitting she probably needed to save some money for an upcoming wedding. I am pretty sure I can sell it for more than she was going to spend.
