Paint the Town, Loveland OH, Sunday, June 28, 2009. Started this acrylic painting of the Pizazz store at about 8:45 am on Friday morning, referencing photos I had taken at 1 pm Wed. Finished this on Sunday afternoon during the wet paint sale from 2-4 pm. I was standing in the shade again, enjoying the sound of water trickling from the fountain, but there was a strong breeze and I had a hard time holding onto the sheet of cardboard I'd taped this canvas to.

As often happens, the challenge of the conditions freed me somehow to complete a better painting than I think I would have without the wind.
