191 Middleburg Street Scene

"They're back." I guess you could call it a hiatus or just plain being busy with more than I had planned (that's good) and not keeping up with this blog. But you should know that though I haven't been posting paintings, I have been painting them. If fact, in a few days you should see the beginning of the third one hundred paintings.

Today's painting is a summer afternoon in Middleburg, VA. The lowering sun backlit the awnings, trees and flowers and made the view down the sidewalk glow. If you want to know the actual location, I was painting diagonally across the intersection for the Red Fox Inn.

119 Upperville Oak

When it comes to painting at horse shows, (which if you didn't know, I happen to do a lot. Especially old showgrounds with old grandstands and buildings with character. No landscaping, just landscapes.) the Upperville Horse Show is in my top two (depending on the weather). The Upperville Show has been going on since 1853, the oldest horse show in the USA. (They did have to stop for a few years in the 1860's.) The showgrounds and the rings are filled with old oak trees, which makes for easy painting. Just find a spot to set up the easel, look around and paint.

Since the oaks are living trees and some very old, the show does loose them to disease and storms, but they are constantly replanting trees to continue the tradition. Here is a painting of a jump under an oak which is no longer there.
