Public Canvas

Under the bridge by the marina there's a simple, weather beaten, acrylic painting of a light house on a boulder. We don't have any light houses in the harbor here except this one...
.
Of course I had to re-paint it new colors- No I didn't paint it on the rock- I'd like to think If I had, it would look a bit more realistic, (perspective, shading, trees, shadows), n prob contain more animals. I'm not a fan of acrylic work. I prefer oils, n use water colors also.
.
Once I painted an itty-bitty landscape on a curved piece of wood, with mountains, railroad tracks, n itty-bitty-er holsten cows- (black n white spotted) based on Vermont memories. I hinged a stand-bar on the back for the plaque, n my Mom kept it on the piano. Someday I'll dig out the packed art from the old house again.

Uptown near the triangle, mini-hangout area is a new breakfast-coffee bar this season, called the "Sunrise Cafe`." I had occassion to go to the laundrymat across from it, n took a pic of their outdoor mural near sunset time...

Then I re-painted that one too! Nope, never had breakfast or coffee there, but I'm sure they do a good deal of business with so much summer foot traffic to the post office next door going on.
.

Come to think of it, I have pics of the post office lobby murals somewhere, n then there's also pics of school kids contest winner paintings to decorate the bath-house on the front beach. I'll have to do file digging for those sometime too.

So stay tuned for installment 2, n hope I actually have digging time at some point soon...
