Tonight was the last of six classes with Tony Conner<\/a> of Bennington VT at the Arts Center of the Capital Region<\/a> in Troy NY. Tonight we started inside, had a great demo of painting sunsets and then moved outside to do just that. And boy, Mother Nature did not disappoint. It might not have been a technicolor dream of a sunset but it was a fabulous array of clouds and beautifully subtle colors. You could feel the rain approaching but it held off until we were heading to our cars. Poured and lightning for a few miles and then clear enough to enjoy a full moon.<\/p>\n

It was a great class again with Tony and I enjoyed my classmates too. I don’t do much urban painting so that was good for me too. I tend to like my buildings without windows – sort of like faceless amish dolls, LOL. Tonight I plopped windows into a painting started last week just to say I could.<\/p>\n

This rapidly expanding cloud was too fast for me. I took photos for reference and finally just put in the buildings quick below. <\/p>\n

Art is our memory of love. The most an artist can do through their work is say, let me show you what I have seen, what I have loved, and perhaps you will see it and love it too. \u2014 Annie Bevan<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These were the photos I took outside.<\/p>\n
