Plein Air Loveland

It's been a hectic month so far in September, with Featured Artist at the Pendleton, Mason Arts festival and starting a part-time job. The hours for my job are landing on my regular paint group days, so that knocks out the work I usually get done there...

I went out with Barb Pask (http://wwwlovetopaint.blogspot.com/) to Lovland and we painted between the raindrops two weeks ago. This is a little cottage along the bike path that was built on the railroad right-away through the town. Appropriately enough, it's on Railroad Avenue.

Findlay Market

This is a 9 x 12 plein air painting I started while out with the SWOPA group in early August and didn't quite finish. I hoped to get back down to Findlay Market to complete it, but my schedule didn't allow. I completed it last week at Mason Area Painters.

The last remaining of the nine public market buildings in Cincinnati, this facility was originally built in 1852 and remodeled over the years. You can find more information about Findlay Market and Cincinnati's other market buildings at: http://www.findlaymarket.org/market-history/
