Opera House

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Fun day today! Served a lot of Baileys and coffee this morning :) Still have 3 days out for work, but am day-dreaming of painting more city scenes when I get home. This is a sketch of the Opera House and an old church that is now an antique store. I've been trying to figure out how to get these 2 landmarks together, since they in the same area, but not right beside each other. I wanted it to be a little curvy and funky, but couldn't get it figured out. But FINALLY, I think I have it set up right. It will be more quirky and "movey" (Dawna word), with music and such in the air when it's done.This sketch is a mess, but it gives me general guidelines to get the painting going. Now I'm just excited about it! What I'm really hoping for is some nice weather so I can go sit on the corner and paint it live. Come on Spring!!
