69 Another Italian Street, take 2

Some famous artist, perhaps Degas, said it was good to paint something more than once. I think this is the 3rd time on this one.

From one of Joel's photos. I would have loved to have been there live to paint this.

From a painting challenge I saw online months ago. Cars have lots of reflections in them. It was a challenge to be content painting the shapes, but it did work. My colors need to be stronger, methinks.

At the plein air paintout at Bethany Springs, second day, I realized doing 1/8 sheets would be more fun. I managed 4 that day before the rain stopped us. I should probably add more color to the people in the prairie.

Just trying to capture some big shapes and colors. It rained on me as I painted this, but it felt good to get wet--so hot and humid!!
